I'm a French photographer, and my name is Dimitri "Jahz Design". It was in 2013 when I developed my interest in the photography of heritage in disuse.
I travel the globe looking for places in decline. Today, I want to share with you the most beautiful abandoned places in Greece.

How inappropriate to call this planet Earth when it is clearly Ocean.” – Arthur C. Clarke
What interests me is photography of heritage in disuse and abandoned places. I am captivated by the unique aesthetics of these forgotten locations, which can evoke mysterious, nostalgic, or melancholic atmospheres. My goal is to capture the history and passage of time in these abandoned places, as they stand as witnesses of the past.

This is in Thessaloniki, the 2nd largest city in Greece and there are several such mansions on the same street. 150 years ago these used to be on the seaside, today the seaside is 600 m away....some of these mansions have been restored, others are alas going in ruins...

Proper preparation for a photographic expedition is essential to ensure safety, respect for the premises, and to obtain high-quality images. I thoroughly study the geographical area and check if the place is difficult to access. Additionally, I consider weather conditions, as some places may not be accessible in winter, for example. Certain locations may also be more interesting to explore during specific seasons. I also take into account the presence of wild animals, as it's an important factor to consider.

For Greece, I researched different types of abandoned places, such as old factories, locomotives, and planes. The country's rich history offers plenty of fascinating subjects to explore. I particularly enjoy discovering places where nature has taken over.

Church

This church is in a village in central Greece that is slowly sliding downhill. There are many houses that are in the same condition too, i.e. sliding down the slope of the mountain....
One of the most significant explorations I had in Greece was of an ancient ship. The waves were crashing against the ship with tremendous force, creating an extremely loud noise and a unique atmosphere.

OP, I've got one for you. On the highway just outside of Thessaloniki, heading southbound, passing the first tollbooth (Malgara) and 5 min further there's a small stone bridge in a field just off the highway, you can see it from your car, which legend claims Alexander the Great himself crossed. It's pretty much abandoned and a cool history fact
