Crazy how quickly abandoned places get run down and degraded - not even 30 yrs if it closed in 1996.
I think some parts were already in a neglected state and abandoned in 1996 :)
Now that's some hardcore commitment to urban exploration right there: homie sees a ghost town in the opposite extreme of the continent via Google Earth and his response is to fly there, then drive an untold amount of hours through the driest biome of this planet to visit an abandoned town contaminated with lung-killing pathogens. I salute you for your determination. Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱
Thanks a million Chris! Really loved Chile😄 Next Sunday we venture into the unseen factory part including a power station and other buildings😌
These last few desert videos are some of my favorites!
I wanted to do something different ! :)
In this desert environment with such intense heat the first question that comes to mind is "Where did the water come from?" I didn't see any giant water tanks.
There was an American style water tank in the distance at one point
No sewage treatment plant?
Check an earlier episode! Hydrostations pumped water to the towns😇
Wondered about the same thing, where did the water originate?
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPathyeah you are right, great video…. they have such a nice dam structure.
Thanks for the video. Very very good and informative. I've visited Pedro de Valdivia and other "Oficinas Salitreras" (Nitrate Offices). When I was in Pedro de Valdivia (2006), still the industrial sector was in activity, with many workers, trucks and mine trains, with electric locomotives. ¿Did you notice the PCC Car bodywork in minute 24:17 to 24:20 in this video?... that were an special kind of tramways brought from USA to serve as workers transport. I saw that kind of PCC tram bodyworks used as store of all kind of things, also in "María Elena", another ghost town near Pedro de Valdivia. Congratulations! Can´t for the next part of the video.
27:55 It says "My taste is clear".
Man, as an neighbor of Chile, I'd love to visit that abandone Town, I find it very interesting.
Hello Bob! Pedro de Valdivia was a beautiful place to live, even with the inclement weather, life was quiet: there was no crime, there was no drug addiction, there were no homeless people. And if! The heat may have been stifling at many hours of the day, but that never stopped us from playing a soccer game in the middle of the desert. At night there were basketball and volleyball championships as well. We played explorers, traveling great distances in the desert... I don't know how we were able to withstand that level of solar radiation without harming ourselves. Excellent video, it filled me with beautiful memories...
A Van's shoe print in the middle of a book in the middle of nowhere that's off the wall!
Haha, good advertisement
Bob this place is epic! I couldn't stop thinking of Egypt an how the pyramid builders were housed in feelings like u filmed here! They had everything they needed except Trees and shade! Great explanation Bob thanks! 😮😮
this was in full operation during my lifetime, and i look it too, in an advanced stage of deterioration
I really enjoy these type of places. I think of the first person that stepped on that land to build and all of the people that made their lives there. And I think of the last person that left and were heartbroken because their lives had changed in a possibly bad way. Not knowing what the future will be. History has a way of making its way back to us. Thank you for these videos you are making. Those of us who can not make such a long journey. You are appreciated.
Thank you Bob for taking us to these awesome places! 🙏
12:16 The sign ask the students to tell if the found explosives!
Wow! Great video! Imagine all the people there!
ABRAÇO DO BRAZIL 🇧🇷 👏👏👏
Excelent video, i love that places, they have mystique👍Greetings from Chile, by a chilean! Welcome 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
What an amazing video Seeing all the abandoned buildings Thanks Bob thoroughly enjoyed it looking forward to part Two
A very interesting explore, nice too what was left, heat kills places like that very fast, you were lucky there was no wind it would be very bad with all that light dust.
Wauw zo’n bijzondere plaats, even kijken of er nog oude beelden van zijn.
love it!
Thanks for checking out!
Loving the series Bob!
Hi! My mother was born in that place. In 1940. She still is alive, she remember 'La Pulperia', 'la escuela'.
O wow! She must have a lot of stories to tell. I wonder how life was there😁
Very cool! Greetings from Canada, and thank you for sharing this!
Luar biasa perjalananya hampir setiap bulan keliling antar benua,Impressive trip
Thanks for checking out!
27:15 Was that a Citroen 2CV?
WAS indeed!
Can't wait for the second video. Subscribed!
Interesting. This is a part of history you don't normally hear about. Such massive towns.
Intriguing location, you remain one of the best explorers out there 🎉
24:45
no alcoholic drinks
no cigarrete
no sniffing agorex glue
Welcome to my country Chile 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
Really liked it 😍
This is amazing in a bizarre way, thanks Bob.
This is a crazy share wow thank you so much!
Thank you for another great video of your exploration!
Amazing!!
That was fascinating!
Another incredible video, thanks
Another excellent video, thanks guys! One observation though: Those floor tiles in the hospital will almost certainly contain asbestos as that was universally used as a filler in most floor coverings (along with numerous other commonly used items) during that time period.
Looking forward to part two now. Stay safe guys.
We have some geoglyphs in Southern Illinois
Oo cool! Didn’t know!😇
IL is full of secrets.
@@avgjoeavglifeand sadly Chicago.😂
@@markvogel5872 Chicago is great.
I can only thank you very much for your work, nowhere else can you get such information as from you... so you can reverse engineer a lot of things and participate in current conditions in the world
The amenities had to be been amazing in the hay day!
11:28 a Canada Dry bottle a long way from home.
Always enjoy your videos 👍
Looks wild
It was.. very cool to explore 😇😇
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath yeh bro, I need to go to the mf attacama lol
Respect from Turkiye.
Turkey.
@iamperplexed4695. The leader Erdoğan changed the name to Turkiye a couple of years ago.
The "Otro Lado" at Pedro de Valdivia would have been more for the British Resident's, (NOT American at all) There were few supervisor of other nationalities'. Many of the British national supervisors that worked at Potrerillos were people that had left their jobs with the Anglo-Chilean Nitrate Co and came to new copper mine close by.
Good to know. Frank ! My information comes from official websites. Wonder why they call it that way...
Were there also Germans?
amazing . you guys are the best at doing these kinds of documentaries . I have a question. did those workers houses have dirt floors, and does it look like there was flooding? the amount of dust on everything is crazy.
Hi Bob.
Amazing places...scary dogs.
I was curious why children would be finding explosives and what sort of government was in control during the era of this mine and town. It seems like quite a mess and I got lost by the late 30's
Very intresting,,thanks for sharing be safe,,love and support from Devon/uk 👍👍👍
how great that yor're in Latin America!! In Mendoza, Argentina, on the road to Chile, there`s an old abandoned thermal hotel called Puente del Inca that is so mysterious. It would be amazing if you could go, but I think it's quite dangerous cause it`s kindof on the cliff of a mountain. don't know how you could access. but you could check it out! you're not far.
I will be exploring in Argentina hopefully soon 🤩🤩collecting some places now
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath That's great! I will be watching all those videos. The thing here in South America is that it's quite difficult to find well preserved places or stopped in time like you did in Japan, China or Egypt. People will generally sell their stuff or it will get looted. But I guess you can find some hidden treasure out there💛
Great video! I hope you can visit another salitreras too, and some abandoned railroad workshops, like in Llanta and Barquito near Chañaral, and if you can, try to go to Sewell, but for that one you need to go with a tourism agency, because the road is used to go to the mines near there, so is quite vigilated.
Just amazing..

VERY VERY INTERESTING. I IN JOYED IT. THANKS.
Absolutely briiliant exploration,they really were a self contained community.Had to laugh thet the one building that was supposedly open to the public.tthe Church was locked! Maybe they left some valuable religious icons in there! Looking forward to episode 2 Bob.😎
Thanks again man! Part 2 is going to be fun. Some cool machinery inside :D
and what do you think happened to the roofs? looks like they were scavenged or salvaged
I couldn’t remember your channel name so i looked up exploring with Bob 😂
thank you!
Great video, makes me think. Did the inhabitants have a good life? I hope so. Things change, humans go with the flow. Glad I saw this piece of Chile. Thanks.
Im curious if the sign pictured at 13:12 says if or when, that changes the context a lot. If it does say "every time you find an explosive" i suppose it was a problem. A problem enough to make a sign for
How did they get water out there with such a high elevation ?
the surnames ending in Ć could be people escaped from balkan during the 1st world war... i had a distant family of my grandgrandfather that escaped during the 1st world war and went to america. last time we heard from them from what my family told me, was in the early 70s. not sure what happened to them afterwards, nobody from here tried to reach them and they didn't do it either.
Nest videos abandoned military bunker ❤❤❤❤
I just crawled outside of a bunker🤣
Bob is the best
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for watching 😇😇
Great location, you escaped from the police, you were very lucky, take care of yourself, I follow you with great love
Bethesda Game Studios should hire you to film sites for their Fallout games and/or the Fallout TV show.
วังเวงยังไงไม่รู้
Why do they leave shoes behind?

I have watched your videos for a very long time.Bob. 👍 I'm wondering ,is this planned, permission granted, or are you truly...sneaking into these places? because the latter makes the most difference when I watch your videos.😊
Hi Tim. I always sneak inside, otherwise I say it's a legal visit. In this case I paid a ticket because it recently opened up partly. But we snuck to some off-limit parts. In the next episode you see the off-limit factory part :)
Jesus, I didn't remember that Pompei was once in the Desert. I don't know. Namastè.
Nothing can live there
what happened to all the roofs and the glass in the buildings did they rot away or reused or stolen
Did I hear someone far at 15:10 😂😂 not sure if I’m the only one who noticed it
Why would you need to worry about losing your equipment in a ghost town and how did la policia even know you were there? Surely you bring things to ensure your personal safety, weapons and the like.
Probably robbers.I read a lot of stories of theft, burglary and raids. I don’t have any weapons. I live in Europe. All forbidden by law and also impossible to bring on a trip. I would end up in jail if I did. 😄
@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath When you are camping out, you need some good tools like a good knife, a hatchet, maybe a hammer for tent pegs, things like that. Plausible things, buy them in-country and leave them there.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
❤
Are you lockpickers? Seems like a useful skill for urbex, but I'd probably make my own in-country instead of trying to take them in my luggage.
Who is don Fredy 🤣
Crazy security tells you to watch for your equipment being stolen. Don't know how you guys do it. Not my kind of place to explore. 👍🙏❤️
That's just crying out to be used as a film set, very Terminator
Either that, or paintballing
You'd think people would pay money to play in a place like that
The amount of pollution there is probably crazy not to mention the use of asbestos in the buildings is probably why it's not toured more.
Nobody wants to live were it's so bloody hot all the time.
Obviuosly someone did.
The google ads are 🤮
play world of tanks also pick EU server very fun
For your next trips, you should equip yourself with face masks with activated carbon
Único brasileiro por aq ????
I am also a UA-camr and I have a channel
Pubg?
you should show more respect for the deceased's medical records and not show them on camera
I think at your level.. I should stay in bed all day😦
Потрясающее и интересное место👍🔥
