Gunkanjima: Ruins of a Forbidden Island Been meaning to post this for ages, so I thought I'd better get it done so I can finally close the damn tab... Gunkanjima is Japanese for Battleship Island, and is the name they have given Hashima Island. It was once a small mining city. Very quickly, the coal mines were shut and everyone was booted from the island. It's now illegal to visit there, though obviously, some people sneak in. The link is for photo's taken by an urban explorer, and he's taken some awesome snaps. Just a sample- ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I love this kind of stuff... |

wow, that's insane! Thanks for sharing the link. Here's another urban explorer link to kill time with. A few of the nuclear type places remind me of Fallout 3. http://www.artificialowl.net/ |

Interesting the history of places and ruins of them. I also like seeing Chernobyl pictures and stuff like that I find it fascinating to think of the history and how it all happened and picture what it would be like to be there. |

Those last pics are amazing Necris. I love how there's a half-life emblemy thing on some of the concrete. Funny how dilapidated structures are so beautiful to look at. |
