Abandoned village at Laguna Epecuén
Villa Epecuén was a touristic village at the shore of Lake Epecuén in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. It was abandoned after a lake level rise caused by the failure of a dam in 1985. After a lake level lowering in recent times, the remains of the waterfront progressively emerge from the salty lake water.
