Abandoned Neverland in Nakhodka: A Park Worth 80 Million Rubles
In Nakhodka, the Central Park, renovated in 2020 at a cost of over 80 million rubles, has fallen into disrepair. Residents showed off broken amusement rides and construction debris.
Broken glass, traces of vandalism and construction debris - that's exactly it looks like The Central Park of Culture and Leisure, which was renovated only in 2020.
“New asphalt has been laid on the paths here, and there is now plenty of space for cycling, rollerblading, scooters, and hoverboards, Wrote then the press service of the administration of the Nakhodka urban district. "This is the largest project to date. Without assistance from the federal and regional budgets, its implementation would have been difficult to begin. The estimated cost of the modernization is over 80 million rubles."
What's happening in the park today?
What's happening in the park today is confirmed by reviews of the park on online maps, as NeMoskva found out:
"The park looks like it's post-apocalypse, everything's in pieces, the carousels are abandoned," "What kind of abandoned Neverland is this?" "Dirty, unsafe for kids," "Worn-out rides with price tags, like those in fancy parks in China. Ruined landscaping. Piles of construction debris. The cliff above the former roller coaster is completely unfenced." — the townspeople respond.
They note that no one cares about the park: "Someone has to do the work and oversee it. But here, everything's a one-off, done for show, then it falls apart and they forget about it."
