What a deep "stay away" feeling those gates give owo 
Thou what mysteries does it hides? I feel like jumping over it to see the house trying to hide behind those trees

Yeah, kind of daunting and tempting at the same time. 0.o

May I ask why do you like exploring such places?

I always loved Romanticism movement, but I think I love exploring abandoned and rotting buildings for three pretty simple reasons:
1) the forbidden feeling that I shouldn't be there and not many go taking photos to
2) the feeling of the Nature taking over human creations so inevitably, changing everything and giving a sort of magic look to even an old wall
3) the calmness of an once crowded and lively place. You can see time eroding everything and changing it, and it's a bit sad, and at the same time it's so natural and normal and it makes you wonder what was the history of the place you visited. It may be a bit morbid, but this is how I think death is: a bit eerie, but still beautiful and calm process, which brings silence and balance.
