This Place Was America’s Vacation Capital - Now It’s in Ruins

The Borscht Belt was a thriving vacation destination in New York's Catskill Mountains. Dozens of grand resorts, bustling summer camps, and packed nightclubs created a cultural hub that shaped comedy, music, and American Jewish life. Today, most of those legendary hotels sit abandoned - crumbling reminders of a vanished era. In this video, I explore the haunting ruins of former Borscht Belt resorts and uncover the story behind their rise and fall. Along the way, I sit down with Peter, a board member of the Borscht Belt Museum, who shares vivid childhood memories of summers in the Catskills and reveals why this once-booming paradise collapsed so quickly. If you’re fascinated by forgotten history, abandoned places, or lost American culture, you won’t want to miss this journey through the remains of the Borscht Belt.
