Walking here at this iron and steel plant is quite dangerous. They say it is guarded by former special squad soldiers who may beat you up severely and take away your belongings. Welcome to the plant!

The plant is mostly abandoned, there are just a couple of departments which are still functioning.

This department has tons of sand which makes it difficult to go.

The roof makes terrifying noises because of the wind and birds.

Staircases here are rotten through.

Very elaborate work!
