China's economic boom created an urban development boom, and all kinds of structures started popping up across the country as hope for the urbanized future loomed.
This development boom proved to be somewhat illusory, so many of these half-built structures have been left to rot by their owners, sad reminders of development dreams past.
One of the saddest kinds of scrapped project structures is the abandoned amusement park, where the promise of familial happiness has gone to die.
Photographer Stefano Cerio visited some of China's most famous abandoned amusement parks, including Wonderland Amusement Park, for his photographic series Chinese Fun.
Chinese Fun plays out like an eerie tour of the park, with Stefano playing tour guide and showing off all the wonderful buildings and attractions that are now nothing more than a collection of crusty curiosities.
