Imagine stumbling upon a luxury time capsule frozen in perpetual twilight. This isn’t a movie set it’s reality at a former five-star hotel in Macau, shuttered nine years ago amid scandal and shadow. At its grand entrance, three majestic Rolls-Royce Phantoms with extended wheelbases sit idle, coated in grime but untouched, as silent witnesses to a vanished glittering past.
Captured by renowned urban explorer YouTube channel Exploring the Unbeaten Path, these luxury cars and many others, rest amidst cracked glass walls and graffiti-strewn facades, flanked by forgotten companions ... a beaten-up Mercedes S-Class, a stretched Hummer limo, even a Dodge Charger converted for VIP shuttles.
The hotel’s sudden closure followed allegations of drug trafficking and violent crime within its walls scandals that sent ripples through Macau’s elite tourism scene. Now, this fortress of faded opulence and automotive royalty sits decaying, an eerie juxtaposition of wealth and ruin.
But even as vines claw at the empty lobby, and dust coats forgotten banquet halls, those Rolls-Royces remain abandoned.
