Burning Man: Is This The Modern Day Babylonian Festival In Nevada? (PHOTOS) by nairaroot: 11:30am On Sep 03, 2015 |
Black Rock City is the official name for the Burning Man camp which is constructed every year in the Nevada desert It has its own streets - with street names - cinema, bus service, and even an airport for the 65,000 inhabitants Including the inner circle, where the Man sculpture stands, it occupies and area the size of downtown San Francisco The city is constructed every year for the week the festival lasts, and is then completely removed at the end It may have been battered by 40mph winds, choked by desert dust, and overrun by huge biting insects, but that doesn't seem to have put anyone off attending this year's Burning Man festival, as these stunning aerial shots of the campground show. Stretching for miles in a massive semi-circle in the middle of Nevada, Black Rock City - as it is known - will be home to around 65,000 residents as they live and party for seven days in a celebration of alternative living. Complete with its own cinema, clubs, places of worship, bus service and even an airport - code 88NX - the gigantic city is assembled as part of a yearly experiment before being completely dismantled and hauled away before beginning again next year. While close-up views of the campsite make it seem a disorganized mess, from far up in the sky the meticulous planning that goes into building the city each year become apparent.
