Forgotten machines sleeping silently in the forest of an old farm.

Hello Steemians,

Today I take you on a different kind of exploration not a festival, not a city, but a quiet hidden place where old abandoned cars rest like lost memories.
Deep inside an old farm surrounded by forest, I discovered a small graveyard of vehicles some rare, some iconic, all untouched for years.
Each one has a story that nature is slowly reclaiming.
Below I share the best photos and moments from this unusual adventure.


Mini Austin: White, Wide Model

In the center of the farm stood a white Mini Austin, the large-body version, covered with dust and leaves.
Its round headlights still gave it a friendly expression, almost like it was waiting for someone to drive it again one day.

Land Rover 2-Doors: Blue Under the Sky

A few meters away, the legend of off-road adventure:
an old blue Land Rover 2 doors, with cracked paint and rusty sides, parked under open sky.
It looked like it once roamed mountains, deserts, and long rural roads.

Yellow Trax: The Old Workhorse

Behind the trees, half-hidden between tall grass, I found a yellow Trax tractor.
Its body was still strong, but the paint had faded under years of sun and rain.
It must have worked hard in the fields long ago.

The yellow Trax, once the power of the farm, now part of the landscape.


White Mercedes G-Class: Broken but Proud

Perhaps the saddest but most impressive was the old white G-Class.
Doors missing, parts on the ground, wheels stacked around it but still holding its iconic shape and presence.

The G-Class: damaged, dismantled, but still a symbol of toughness.


Big Orange Camion: Model Unknown

Near the edge of the forest sat a huge orange camion, its model impossible to identify.
The body was massive, rust eating the edges, and the engine compartment wide open like a fossil of heavy machinery.

Renault 4L: The Icon of Simplicity

Finally, the classic:
an old Renault 4L, white and peaceful, surrounded by grass and quiet.
It’s a car that tells stories of families, villages, and long Tunisian roads.

The Renault 4L: simple, nostalgic, and full of stories.


Abandoned, But Full of Life

Walking through this hidden place felt like entering another time.
The cars may no longer move, but the forest has given them a new silence, a new identity.
Metal aging under the sun, nature growing through wheels and doors a perfect mix of rust, roots, and memories.
Here, nothing is lost. Everything becomes part of the landscape.

Final Thoughts

This wasn’t just an abandoned car spot, it felt like an open-air museum of forgotten mechanics.
Every rusted door and broken windshield seemed to whisper memories of roads, families, work, and time.
If you enjoy photography, old machines, or exploring hidden places, this kind of spot is a treasure.

A fantastic place with an aura of the past that evokes many stories.
You could almost film a post-apocalyptic movie there.
Thanks for sharing.
