People seldom appreciate the charm and beauty of an empty space. Places that were left to the gods or old buildings given up to the changes of the climate assume a splendour all of their own, drawing on the organic aesthetics of vines and weathered storms. After the hustle and bustle of big city life, we all need to take it easy sometimes. Some people love to be surrounded by life, while others just want to go to places where they can lose themselves in the serene bliss of nothingness.India has no dearth of abandoned wonderlands and sprawling places of nothing, you just have to search a little. Check it out!

5. Fatehpur Sikri, Agra

Fatehpur Sikri was abandoned in 1585 due to lack of water and has been a tourist attraction since. No surprise considering it was Emperor Akbar's capital for a while and boasts of pristine architecture.

6. Chiktan, Ladakh

This castle in Kargil is like Dracula's lair in real life. Located at the top of an isolated mountain, it juts out , looming eerily overhead and casting a shadow of abandon along the lower areas.
