I love Chinese industrial structures. They have a kind of dystopian sci-fi nature about them that your don't get in the west anymore -  all coal dust and desert sand, with no apparent sign of human habitation. Until, that is, you scroll around a bit and find beautiful empty freeways, hundreds of apartment blocks and spacious urban plazas.

 Majove Desert near Goldstone, California. Monthballed fighters sitting inside large earth berms in the middle of a very remote airfield in the sagebrush desert. Go figure. 

Tuscon, Arizona. See the B2s and Strato Fortresses. Everyone should look at this on Google Earth. The mind boggles. This is just a tiny section of what must be the largest collection of mothballed military aircraft in the world.
