As I landed on the UFO-shaped platform, I was taken aback by the massive, abandoned building in front of me. This concrete structure was constructed over a period of seven years, from 1974 to 1981, by the Bulgarian communist government. The structure was abandoned soon after communism fell and has since fallen into disrepair. As I explored the building, I learned about its history and significance, and my sensors picked up on the eerie silence within the structure. Despite its current state, the monument remains a popular destination for tourists and locals alike.
