Today I am starting a new series called ‘Abandoned places in Romania’, so you can all enjoy the stories behind those incredible constructions that are now abandoned.
We start off with the Casino in Constanta, a famous tourist attraction nowadays. The casino was founded in 1910. Here, many love stories and tragedies were born. Big amounts of money were rolled and fortunes were made or destroyed depending on luck. Due to the fact that Constanta is a port city, many of those unlucky players decided to commit suicide by jumping straight in the sea. In order to be accepted in the casino, you had to wear the latest trend in fashion.
The last renovation was done in 1988. The building is now abandoned, waiting for someone to give a hand and put it to use. However, the authorities do not care about it and they don’t intend to use it. The architecture is amazing, if you don’t believe me just check the images below.
