How do I want to introduce this island? Japan’s version of an abandoned Arkham Asylum? An island Chernobyl? The world after an apocalypse?
Every once in a while Digg.com throws up a genuinely interesting article. Given that I have a fondness for abandoned civilization, this particular article on Battleship Island, immediately caught my eye. Like that article I linked to a ways back on abandoned Chernobyl, it’s really just a collage of images. It’s a world that humanity abandoned, rather frightening, always mysterious. Enjoy!
For more information Wikipedia has a rather expensive page on Hashima.
