What is Urbex?

Urban exploration (often shortened as UE, urbex and sometimes known as roof-and-tunnel hacking) is the exploration of man-made structures, usually abandoned ruins or not usually seen components of the man-made environment. Photography and historical interest/documentation are heavily featured in the hobby and, although it may sometimes involve trespassing onto private property, this is not always the case. Urban exploration may also be referred to as draining (a specific form of urban exploration where storm drains or sewers are explored), urban spelunking, urban rock climbing, urban caving, or building hacking.

How can I get the PixelClub's URBEX MAP?

Finding and locating Urbex sites is a time-consuming task or we can call it a hobby.

First, try Google Search & Google Maps, a good search can do miracles 😉

But with the help of Google maps and Bing maps, google search urbex-related webpages, and delving into the comments of open/closed Facebook groups with abandoned topics, you can find almost every location if you really want it. That’s how we’ve made a Google Urbex World Map digging deep into the Internet, so now we have thousands of amazing new places to discover, only time and money limit us. If you are also an Urbex photographer, or if you have an Urbex Vlog/Blog please contact us, we are ready to share or change locations if we are sure you are a trusted Urbexer/Friend, not a metal dealer/thief or a destructive barbarian vandal.

We strictly condemn all forms of destruction of deserted places, damaging abandoned sites. We take nothing away, we do not move anything, don’t break locks, don’t break windows. Take photos, leave just footprints.

Location suggestions are welcomed!

What kind of equipment do you use?

Nowadays we are using Sony Alpha 7 II and III cameras for photographing, and YI4K+ action cameras for videos. See more on the About Us page.

Please support us on Patreon, so with this support, we can visit better and better-abandoned places all over the world. You will be able to get the newest blog posts and pictures weeks before they will be published here and on our Facebook page. Also, we are doing live chat sessions with our supporters, so you can hear the really interesting stories about how we find a hidden location, hor how is it possible to enter a place or how can we survive when we are cathed by the security. This behind the scene information is only for the supporting Patreon users. Also, you will be the first to be able to buy a cheaper price for our future printed Urbex photo albums, so early heads up on any new print products just for you.

Maintaining a site like this, with a Facebook page with daily posts needs a lot of time and effort. We created this Club to share our adventures and photos with the world, to keep the memory of these abandoned buildings which might even disappear in the near future forever. Our hope is that visitors enjoy their time here and think about the past, the stories behind the pictures, and maybe we will encourage someone to buy and restore a site.

If you don’t have enough money to support us on Patreon, there is another way: follow us on Facebook, Like and Comment frequently – we love interacting with people who like the topic, tell your friends/family/colleagues about our pages, share a link to our website with them so they can take a look, or share re-tweet our social media posts so that other interested people you know might see something they like!

We appreciate your feedback!

Thanks in advance!
