Exploring the abandoned Željava Air Base, in pictures

Creepy but beautiful

Newsroom March 16 01:45

The Zeljava Air Force base is situated between Croatia and Bosnia & Herzegovina under the mountain Pljesivica. What is so interesting about it is the fact that a big portion of the base is actually carved inside the mountain and the fact that it is now abandoned.
And as every abandoned building, especially military facilities, it is a fascinating place!
