What's the creepiest abandoned construction site in the world?

 Well, imagine for fun - or out of necessity - entering the ruins of an abandoned construction site and finding yourself facing two Soviet equivalents of a space shuttle, completely abandoned and freely accessible, with reactors and engines on full display.

This is something that could easily be done in Russia until 2002, the year in which the site where the Buran Program was being carried out was dismantled , the most expensive, ambitious and significant Soviet space project ever, which ended up being miserably abandoned in the early 1990s due to the dissolution of the Union, on which more than 1 million people and approximately 1400 organizations worked, on which a record sum of over a billion rubles was wasted.
