Inside Abandoned Hotel Belvedere in Switzerland

In the 20th century, visitors to the Rhone Glacier and the hotel steadily increased thanks to the opening of two new railways. However, since the 1960s, the number of guests in the Alpine region has been declining sharply. Cars become too powerful and fast, so what used to be a two-day or three-day trip through the aisle becomes a one-day trip.

In 1964, the Furkapass was the scenery of a pursuit scene in the James Bond movie Goldfinger. Some say Sean Connery spent the night in the hotel – rumour has it he became a regular visitor in the next years. Pope John the 23rd was also one the hotel’s famous regulars.
