Cash will quickly beat off on tourism

Today, [livejournal.com profile] urban_decay gave me some fascinating pictures and a near-incomprehensible report on a strange place called Gunkajima Island.

This is utterly fascinating.

Here is a picture gallery: http://www.ne.jp/asahi/saiga/yuji/gallary/gunsu/g-text-e.html

The link to the pics is at the bottom of the text.

man, i would go there, set up wireless in one of the apartments, and have my own planet-of-the-apes style getaway.

I found this: http://www.cabinetmagazine.org/issues/7/hashima.php

It tells the back story of the place pretty well. Sounds like somewhere quite amazing to visit, though it seems that no one is allowed to go there these days.
