I just listened to an old album of a once favorite band The Residents with this title while looking at this picture – a perfect match.

A place to die – the Sakai Hospital Haikyo

The Sakai Hospital Haikyo

I found the Sakai Hospital by chance while driving around in the Nagasaki Prefecture. Its clearly visible from the street and – as a neighbor explained – abandoned since 1970.
But from the inside its practically unvandalized and in rather good condition after all these years…probably because it was one of the most scary places I ever visited. The Sakai Hospital was a “Hospital for the Aged” and looking inside, it was pretty self-explainable what this means: It was a place to die.

Bats surrounded me while I took pictures and the neighbor told me later that he would never go inside because of the snakes and the ghosts…ouch. Maybe this explained also the dead cat I found inside. Click here to read more…
