Abandoned, rusting coaster park
I don't read the Asian script that this page is authored in, but the incredible, lush photos of a mist-shrouded, rusting, decaying coaster park speak for themselves.

Update: Tetsuya sez,
It's in Japanese, and is apparently a amusement park that closed in Heisei 11 - 1999 - after being "renewed" in 1982. Exact location is unknown - it's simply listed as "Abandoned Amusement Park T" in the Touhoku region - but it appears to be in the boonies.The sixth picture down on the first page is particularly poignant - it compares the rusting coaster tracks to a "wounded white dragon resting on the grass".
It also seems to have had a sled ramp of sorts with numbered sleds - makes sense, as the touhoku (NE) region of honshuu (the main, largest island - basically the upper tip of it on a map) tends to get plenty of snow in the winter.
That's all. At the end, the photographer notes that it was sentimental...
Update 2: Mdana points out more photos of this place here
