Abandoned and Neglected

I used to be a swimming pool
Swimmers everywhere
Abandoned and neglected
No-one seems to care

Escher Sports Complex in Eshera, Abkhazia

This indoor swimming pool was part of a larger complex that was used as an Olympic training base for sportsmen and women from all over the Soviet Union during the 1970s and ‘80s. The entire compound was destroyed during the Abkhazia-Georgia conflict that started in August 1992 and lasted until September the following year.
