ABANDONED PLAZA HOTEL
The beds are consumed by moss instead of customers at this abandoned hotel. Set tables lie untouched as the Plaza Hotel, located in Germany, slowly decays. These unnerving photographs were captured by London urban explorer Andre Govia, after he decided to start documenting his love of abandoned buildings. 'I have always loved exploring abandoned buildings and one day I was given an old camera and decided to start documenting the decay,' said Andre.
