In this episode we explore a water park that was left abandoned in China. At first, it seemed like a perfectly good water park was left behind, but we soon realized why it closed - it was sinking!

This gave me a “after humans all die and one lives and sees the world” vibe
Was such post apocalyptic scenario
Honestly tho
its kenopsia, look it up, i have it too
Aklect battle of JAKKU after math

"I dont feel safe on this wobbly slide, Im getting off"
"Go stand over there for a picture"
"Okay"
I was laughing when I watch this, that's hilarious :D
kt valor It’s Wenzhou, the province capital of Zhejiang.

I wasnt gonna actually watch this but thanks to ur comment now Im gonna watch it
Does anyone else wanna go and rent a U-Haul and take the big ship there on and build an ark...? Build on it and take it out to sea. Yep. I wanna be a pirate.
My theory:
I think that either the ground is sinking, or there was a earthquake that caused this mess. It would be too much to repair: to make sure the slides are stable, fix the cracked ground and the worst part, the water pipes underground that was in all likelihood nothing you can fix. It's too mch things to fix and then, the water park was abandoned.
I was thinking earthquake too. I mean it is China and earthquakes do happen there frequently.
If the area was build on an aquifer then this could definitely be sinking as water is drawn up from the ground. you can get results like this. Could have also just been some very unstable land for such a construction, though.
There are abandoned places like this all over China. You wouldn’t need an earthquake to make a big building or park like this derelict, nothing is built to last in China.
@@dilo19000 I think the park was hastily slapped together without any regard for the foundation. It does happen. Even in the US, sometimes massive structures have problems like this when people don't stop to make sure the ground won't sink or shift. Now Dubai doesn't seem to have issues on its manmade islands because the government actually listened to the engineers. They were firmly warned that unless work was halted to dump more soil and sand to strengthen the foundation, the first island would sink within a year. This pushed construction back a few months but the government agreed to it. Ironically, the economic fallout led to people cancelling their lease agreements and the islands are barely inhabited. I'm surprised they decided to build The World Islands because I don't see how it can succeed if the first three islands aren't even fully occupied...
rising sea levels and climate change maybe?
i like how real this video is.
no overreaction. no scary sound effects. no title like ''sPENDinG 24 HOurS aT a AbAndONEd wAter paRk In cHINa (GONE WRONG) *emotional*'' just 4 friends hanging out and exploring. its nice. C:
I agree I hate it when pepole overreact
And go like Weeeeeeelllllllllll Heeeeeeeeeeeee gone worng
The thing about abandonment is that they just drop everything and leave it as it is. It feels like a ghost town it’s actually really creepy.
But I love the vibes I get watching these vids
@@spacedout3218 ......k
Well China and Italy is ghost town and Greece in a few days I guess
They should at least tear it down for nature purposes. They still have everything there. Makes me wonder if the owners still pay for the land. 🤷🏼♀️

“That is scary...let’s go down here”

@ANA LUCIA SIERRA GARCIA AH YES s h u c h
So true it's like 1 moment their saying "That's scary" & the next moment you see them bolting out with something chasing them.
For anyone curious, this park was opened in July 2014 and closed by October 31st 2015. The park cost 3.18 million yuan to construct, but the owner only payed 1.54 million yuan. This obviously lead to legal issues, and it turned out the owner participated in other sketchy practices like failing to list his assets such as his house. It's a shame this all went down because it looked like a really nice park otherwise! I got this info from an article commented on r/submechanophobia, on a post about the Dolphin Bay Dream Water Park in China.
Bet he had lots of friends in the CCP. That's how communism works. Waste of time, money and labor. A permanent administrative/managerial class of middle IQ individuals who conspire to make each other rich at the expense of the average chinaman and use the "plight of the working man" BS marxist garbage as cover fire for their insanity.
The price to construct it (even though there were obviously serious construction flaws/ issues/ hazzards) compared to what it would cost in America (about 80 to 100+ times as much) is simply mind blowing.
This really gives off Cherynobl vibes
don't all of there vids give off hat vibe
Tell me about it
Also the guy on the motorbike was super nice and just sounds like a kind, concerned grandpa minding the kids. He wasn’t offended they were there much at all, actually just commented on the safety and I think he really understood that they spent all this effort to go there.

If you guys ever go to a water park again, I would recommend taking some high quality rope. That way, you can hook it around an anchoring point so if worst comes to worst and the slide is slippery and blocked at the bottom for whatever reason, you can use that to help with climbing back up. Kinda like reverse abseiling.
@Unicat of Science reverse abseiling makes it sound cooler though
Bowmaker Fox thanks 👍
Bowmaker Fox you must be new here
I'd just take a skateboard omg
Good thinking
sad to think about that someone actually lives there. It was very respectful of you guys to just leave things as is and leave when you realised. They probably dont have much more than that
"and leave before sunset" thats spirited away stuff right there
Absolutely love the fact that there’s no graffiti, all the glasses in the cafe are intact ! If that was America or Britain it would all be smashed to bits and graffitied all over
I can relate there's graffiti everywhere in Britain mostly
smelly paws silence, bottom
@smelly paws "smelly paws"
I was thinking the same thing while watching this..it must be so beautiful to walk through a place like that.
It's because if they were caught vandalizing the place, the dystopian chinese government mandated social system will deduct points and make it almost impossible for these people to survive within China. No more loans, deducted pay, etc.
“That is scary” - heads straight towards it
Zoroxili hahahahahahaha
@Zoroxili lmao
The thought of being trapped in one of those slides is my worst nightmare
Looking at it from an engineers perspective and I know nothing of the area. It looks like the ground shifted and became water bound. Notice how the structures themselves are all tilted "I'd call it to one side" on an angle of around3-5% look at the Symmetry of the full scope of things. Engineers are well informed (Even in Chinese culture) to build things according to the environment. The ground shifted and the soil became like soft sand and than sunk. I'm thinking earthquake or mismanagement of construction (Quite possibly, Not defiantly) for the fact that if you look below and the farmers have water. The construction was botched causing the hillside to buildup and soak the ground acting as a dam under the park. I would Imagine and I still like I said before have never been there but I would haul the whole park elsewhere if I was the one rebuilding it. Everything was hauled there and can be re-hauled:)
1. First off you need to consider hydrodynamics. Water falls through gravity and will flow to unless directed.
2. The whole park unless connected to a solid stone like granite is going to crash eventually due to rain fall and mud/granular slides.
3. It's a beautiful view but rain in the region was not thought about obviously.
4. If it were me I would have put drainage before ever starting construction and thought about loads on the existing structure. The load could have been deep struct mounts for buildings and not so much at the top that require large foundations.
5. You have to consider the farmers below as well, Generations of people probably farmed there and for them to leave is a huge NO!!!.
(Factoring it all in) Who was the Idiot that decided to put a water park on top of a landslide area?
Thanks for the video :) Keep up the great work 1k thumbs up. PS: I'd skate that in a heart beat:) i'm 50 and still would ;)
Agree completely. I think some basic pre-construction engineering homework was either done incompetently or not at all.
Leave it to corupt Chinese mismanagement. I'm not surprised in the slightest. Typical!
@@lmnopxyz5796 uhm, sorry but we dont do racial remarks here
Well, atleast word it a little better lmao
looking at historical imagery construction started in 2014 but in 2003 it would have been about 1.6km offshore and in 2013 the land was still under water but the roads where established . 27°39'40.38" N 120°40'37.96" E

*Dolphin Bay Dream Water Park [温州海豚湾水上乐园], Pingyang County, Wezhou. The water park was opened to the public in 2013. However, it closed after less than four years of operation, as the company operating the park was unable to repay the bank loan. The park was therefore seized by the bank around 2017 and the operating company was sued for bankruptcy.*
I wonder when everything started to shift then
Thankkksss
HavocBlack Sometimes in china, buildings are thrown up so quickly that they don’t leave anything time to settle. The dirt and concrete wasn’t finished settling, but foundations were built into it
HavocBlack It happens in other countries too, like in the US, where a shopping complex was built over an old landfill.
@@bandombeviews6035 explain
I can imagine little kids running around in bright summertime swimming costumes and teen age ish friend groups eating ice pops and everyone having fun on water slides and stuff but then it’s just empty and lifeless. It’s kind of unsettling but mainly just sad to me. It makes me nostalgic to something that never happened to me
The last building you went to actually is the office building+employee dorm. They need a lot of employees that hired from outside the city and those dorm are provided for them to stay. A lot of Chinese companies do that, so those workers can save up some money when working there before go back to their hometown.
Ironically that could be the safest place in China right now.

Sike,son of a bitch im in
"海豚湾“ was the popular name for this water park, in English, it means Dolphin Bay. The reason why this water park was abandoned due to debts to a construction company. They couldn't pay their debts and the construction company sued the water park and they had to file for bankruptcy around three years ago in early 2017.
davopan2012 Thanks alot!
davopan2012 thank you for letting us know

@@eyesack6845 I'm not sure if you mean in the beginning or when they entered the first room that was full of a lot of stuff. They weren't sure if anyone currently lived in the first room they went into, it was only after they went into two other rooms and checked to see if there was electricity, that they confirmed that people lived there.
By the 'beginning' I mean when they first saw the farmers

The saddest part about these places is the indoor pot plants that are just left behind (22:22.)
You know you are leaving; you know without someone being there to water the plants means they will wilt and die. Why doesn't someone just liberate them as they leave and put the pots/trees/small shrubs outside, so they at least have a chance to live with rain and sunshine.
True.
Wenzhou Dolphin Bay Water Park
In May 2014, the total cost of the entire project was about 3.18 million yuan, of which Dolphin Bay only paid about 1.54 million yuan, and the remaining 1.6 million yuan has been in arrears. Xue Mokai failed to pursue the multi-party claim, angrily, he took the Dolphin Bay Company to court. In February 2017, Xue Mokai applied to the court for bankruptcy liquidation of the Dolphin Bay Company on the grounds that the Dolphin Bay Company was unable to pay off its due debts and apparently lacked liquidity.

i just wanna put out there that i really appreciate you guys respecting the homes of the people who unfortunatly live here. i have seen way too many channels on this website and instances where rather than backing off and living their quarters alone, people decide to go through what little the homless inhabitants have for "fun" and "views." kudos to you both
From what I can find online in Chinese, it seems like the owner of the water park was in debt and the land was auctioned off a few years ago. The sinking ground might just be a consequence of the water park being abandoned.
@Patrick Gonzalez 温州海豚湾水上乐园
@Patrick Gonzalez Wenzhou Dolphin Bay water park
Also might have accidentally been built on Limestone, which degrades very quickly when water runs over it
Multiple comments say that there was a earthquake that messed up the land and it was to much to fix...idk how true that is but I saw like 10 ppl say it before I saw this comment
The overcast weather made the park seem even more eerie
Ben Dover a sunny day would’ve been cooler lol
Why do you think they did it on that day
Pfft China’s like constantly in that weather because of air pollution
the fact that those theme park stuff metal making errie sounds is kinda giving me chills, if they just made the foundation to be on a solid ground i think this wouldn't have been an abandoned one
This girl is cute. "I think I gonna die, getting outta here.' She," Wait, go back, let me take a picture." This park only operated for 3 years, how could the foundation sink so bad...

why do you think he actually said that?
why do you think the park was suddenly sinking and abandoned?
I'm curious rn
@@noushinnazar4606 He said that because if it's dark outside it's extremely dangerous since you could easily slip and fall. The park was most likely sinking because it was built on a non-sturdy surface which couldn't "support" foundations.
It’s so weird to imagine the fun amazing memories that people must have there when now it’s just completely abandoned and has a terribly eerie feel to it
I don't think this place was open for very long. Like... I think it opened in 2014 and closed in 2018.
Also Chinese people have no money for recreation like this. If they do have the money they don't spend it on this kind of stuff which is why it often boggles me as to why they are built. As in all countries many developers have grandiose ideas that don't really benefit anyone at all. Built and discarded. This was an amazing park but I don't think it was used.
yea like it gives off that indescribable feeling
Dude when I was watching this video I just kept seeing people playing one child specifically. Kinda creepy
Angela P
Not to mention they’d be competing against Shanghai and Hong Kong Disney, so what would be the point to go to a water park rather than one of the most well known amusement parks
"leave before sunset" oof when i heard it i instantly remember those horror movies when an old man or woman pops up and saying some warnings to people because the place is haunted asf
This is super cool. You always see photos of abandoned places, but I can imagine being there is just surreal. Knowing that there used to be so much happiness, and energy running around throughout the park- and yet now, it's empty. The life if the park left with the people, and now it's reduced to rubel. I just find that so crazy.

The land was shifted because of the Earthquake in 2016 or something like that then people came to see the damage realized the the ground was shifted and it would be to much money to fix it so they just left the park.
I find it odd that if that's the case it was bade enough to shift the land so much but not enough to displace items. The glassware hasn't been moved at all

No he means that the water park has no variety’s like no one will go to it for two days
Also it makes more sense to me that if they needed housing for employees office areas it makes sense to just help with The long travel by building a larger building initially

"Who would stay in hotel next to a tiny water park"
That's the biggest water park i've seen in my life
Really? 😂
Same haha, most of the water parks I've seen have like 5 decent slides max and have whole hotels attached. But I'm also in Minnesota and its not really water park territory
go to Wisconsin dells after corona then you will have your mind blown
Wisconsin dells has got like 40 decent slides it is actually known as the biggest water park in america
its like $70 per person very expensive but very worth it

It made me feel so uneasy
Well probably the whole park, including the utensil would have been seized by the bank so they couldn’t have sold it. But yeah they could have sold those before the seizure but they didn’t. Maybe the bank planned on reopening than thought otherwise

Abandoned places in China: perfectly preserved
well yeah cuz u.s is full of thieves and bad people
HesUpNext And China along with all Asian countries are weird. (:
@@yourhotuncle2285 Asian people have the exactly same thoughts about u.s
Charlie W China judges everything and everybody. So why does that matter?
Your Hot Uncle EXECTLY SAME
It's cool that you were able to give us a view of something that is not seen or "forbidden" outside of the country. Great job guys!
This is my first video of yours, I’m totally hooked!!
This turned into a horror movie when they went inside the hotel...
im suprised they didnt bring masks for the asbestos
@@gatorpack5542 the wouldn’t have known though
This turned into a horror movie when they went to China
When?
Walking past the front gate was basically the opening title screen
it looks like an apocalypse because all the dishes were still there itslike they just left and never went back
Penny Louise yeah, it’s like it’s really abandoned
Penny Louise I like your profile pic!
imo this looks like where the hungergames would take place if it was real, they even have a cornucopia lol
@@thedollreviewer ikr this scene literally made me cry lol
This should be a new cod map
This is literally the coolest and hugest water Park i've seen so far. Sad that nobody can use all these things!
This is giving me heavy, strangely familiar/liminal space vibes
It's sad that some staff still lives there, the building is not in good conditions and could fall with them inside. Also it's seem like a creepy place to live.
GCAM you realise it ain’t staff that’s some homeless guy😂
@@99mintaltezza2 it might be someone who used to work there, its interesting tho how neat this persons makeshift home looked, especially if you compare it to some other makeshift spaces in other countries(like the old college dan bell filmed in his latest video)
First off, ALL the "staff" likely lived there. This is why there were bunks. This is China after all. The country where a lot of companies house, feed, and put up suicide nets for their "employees". Secondly, you're not any safer in a NEW Chinese building. Look up Ghost Cities of China. They built massive complexes of apartment towers, and then a year or 2 later the towers fall down with everyone inside them still.
It's a result of the downside of intellectual theft. China makes a lot of the facade that home builders around the world use, but they have never interacted with how the structures are made. So they make the structures LOOK like they would anywhere else in the world, but the core of a large percent of the buildings in China won't last 2 years.
I would think they would have picked the suites at the opposite end, where the buildings isn’t starting to split wide open!
Mac Gyver Mac Gyver lmao suicide nets in factories funded by American companies, we’re no better if we’re the ones benefiting from this suffering.
Wow I was expecting the comments to all be about Coronavirus
I wonder if they're not allowed to leave
kaleb b this was probably filmed before it got too bad. As long as they weren’t near Wuhan They should be fine
@@benabadie7351 yes that makes sense I didnt think about the fact they posted previous china videos and editing takes a minute
kaleb b didn’t even realize they had other china vids before this one. I guess my notifications settings are messed up lmao
@@benabadie7351 same bro I dont pay attention
The red tubes sticking out of the ground with chrome spinning things on could be a vent for underground trapped gas. We have some near us and it was because the buildings were built on top of a wasteland, it was also sinking. I think buildings/areas of this kind are given recommended amounts of time before they need to start checking the structure and stability.
Those cracks in the walls around 25:00 remind me of a trip I took outside Istanbul (Bursa) 20 years ago after a big earthquake hit the city. Many of the buildings had the same diagonal cracks in the walls.
There's a water park EXACTLY like this in Johannesburg, South Africa. It's called Happy Island Water World and it was built by Chinese nationals. Its fairly new and operational. Its crazy how they look alike.
even the logo is a dolphin-- A reference to the old name and logo, which was a dolphin. The name was "Dolphin Bay Dream"
This looks almost exactly like the one in my city. Accept the one here is open.
@Colin Rocco Idk man we love water parks in SA they seem to do well
Hello fellow South African !!!
Yeah literally just looked it up, they have a slide at their park that is identical to the slide at the end of this video. Thanks for the tip
This place isn't some urbex hotspot in China, and we were actually the first group explored the place, probably because it's too far away from all these urbex hotspots. It took us 5 hours round trip to get there (train+taxi), but you know what? Originally we planned to spend 10 hours round trip just to visit this place lol. The park went bankrupt in 2017 and auctioned ~$12 million US in 2018, although they spent over $60 million US at the first place. We got there in Oct 2019 but there was no sign of repurposing or re-developing obviously... and btw, that snake slide is my favourite waterslide ever, including active ones ❤️
Why don't you have a channel with videos also?
You've done a great job of helping the 3 blokes explore some great places we all wouldn't get to see without you and in this case without spending a penny/cent in bribes.
Thank you!!
Felix TheCat let the professionals do their job! Lol idk I’m probably more into urbex writing and photography 😊 (and btw that’s a lie I’m just lazy 😭
GibsAndPieces haha I don’t mind spending some twenties to bribe lol! I actually tried to bribe my way into an abandoned building in Detroit back in 2017 but failed miserably 😂
@@rantropolis im also lazy but i think you can do a great job. :)
Watched this video a few times in the past - It's a great video!
Special thanks to Bryan and Michael for bringing quality programs. What haunts us so about abandoned buildings? I don’t have that answer, but I appreciate your respectful documentaries. Well done, Guys! ❤❤
the whole place was likely built of landfill or reclaimed land, and an environmental study was probably never done until everything started sinking!
China didn't have an environmental study done?
Who would allow something like that?
I call false on your claim.
yeah! _you're_ *funny!*
@dan b exactly. That’s what happens when you don’t do a Phase I before buying/developing.....
@@danielwalker26 what the hell are you talking about? Go complain somewhere else
Is won't be a landfill. Lots of China's land is very marshy.
