Hashima (Japan) the Battleship Island.



Hashima (Gunkanjima) once was a coal mining community established in 1887 and abandoned in 1974.
The city counted the highest population density ever recorded in the world. Mitsubishi bought the Island in 1890. Now all the abandoned concrete buildings surround the island.
