Hidden From The World: These Are The Biggest Abandoned Places On Earth

An Abandoned House Of Pencho Semov, Bulgaria

Pencho Semov, aka Bulgarian Rockefeller, was the first billionaire in the country. Born in a poor family, Semov climbed the social ladder with trading and banking. His journey to becoming the first billionaire in the country was challenging, but he remained persistent. Before he died, he said that he wanted to have his mansion converted into a retirement home and two other buildings into girls' boarding schools. He also stated that one school would be for poor girls and free of charge. The other school would be for wealthy girls and would charge small taxes.

Unfortunately, there was no one to carry out his wishes after he died in 1945. Moreover, the government also blocked all of his resources. They later used his mansion as an infectious tuberculosis ward.
