15 sad photos of the most picturesque place in California, which burned to the ground

Each summer, California fights a huge number of merciless forest fires, which are constantly erupting in various parts of the state. The fire element that burns everything in its path has recently reached the Big Sur area. Let’s see what this place has become, once visited by tourists for its amazing natural scenic beauty. Photos taken July 31.

The coastline of Big Sur stretches 145 kilometers from the Carmel River to San Caproforo Bay. From this point of the coast you can see hills covered in smoke from forest fires.

All that remains after the fire is clay pots and this statue.

The machine is coated with chemicals that a fire plane sprayed.

The helicopter did not have time to fly to this place, therefore everything here burned out completely. But recently, next to this pool was a beautiful house.

Just imagine how strong the fire was raging in this place if even glass bottles could be melted. But the minimum glass melting point is 750 ° C.

If you look closely at this burned out area, you can clearly see the traces of a completely burned out house.

A burned-out simulator stands on top of a hill - a crazy sight.

Perhaps the next part of Mad Max can be filmed here.

The fire mercilessly destroyed everything that could.

Only about a thousand people live in Big Sur, and all their houses are located far from each other. However, there is little left after the forest fires that arrived in the region.

The fire burned down the walls of this house, and carefully lowered the roof to the ground, practically without disrupting the order of the tiles.

Just the other day there was a large mansion with a pool, and that's what happened to this place now.

The fire burned the motorcycle, leaving only a "inedible" metal frame.
