The Ghost Town Island - Gunkanjima Japan

In the early 1900's, Gunkanjima was a Rich City Island and desenly populated even this vast island is only less than 1 km, this because the City was a Prosperous Island for its rich coal on that time was being managed by Mitsubishi Corporation



To accommodate the miners, ten apartment complex built there. A tall labyrinth connected with the terrace, corridors and stairs. There are schools, restaurants, and gaming houses, all surrounded by a protective wall. The island is known as “Nashi Midori Shima,” the island without a green color. In the Year 50’s the population reached 6000 people, this is the most densely populated islands in the world at that time.

But the coal mines that continuously dredged up to the seabed in the long time is exhausted and the island was closed. The island that did not have any green plants die over time. Fifty years later, the island is like a ghost island with crumbling apartments. Year 1974-2009, the island is sealed off from visitors. But recently emerged new regulations, this unique island opened to tourists. The island is also listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
