Description Once known as a retail and entertainment hub, now a shadow of it past glory as nature begin to retake the ruins

Yet still it attract tourists from all over, as a must stop area for any ruin explorers.

But do take precautions, while in the past, it might be one of the safest place on earth, but now, it will only be safer with a weapon or two at hand.

~Artist note~
This is a piece I did around 5-6 months ago, it was meant for another project but plans changed and I got to post it now

It is strange how a few months after I "completed" it, I still end up making major changes to it after I was prepared to post it up a few days ago.

Hehehe let see if anyone recognize this place

Nice Work!!
And i know what you mean...... I, too, tend to make major changes to my pics (somehow it always seems necessary after a while.....)

Yup a lot of time you don't notice the mistake you made while drawing or painting it, it is always when you come back after a while that you notice it

Very inspiring.

Stunning image.
