City Of Dead (KOLMANSKOP,Namibia)
Buried in Sand Kolmanskop is a ghost town in southern Namibia, a few kilometers from the port of Luderitz. In 1908 Luderitz diamond fever and people then go to the Namib desert to get rich easily. In the past two years has created a magnificent city with all the infrastructure such as casinos, schools, hospitals, even with an exclusive residential buildings which stood on land that was once barren and desert. But after the First World War,
buying and selling diamonds to a standstill, this is the beginning of the end of everything. During the 1950s the city began to abandon, the sand began to demand what belonged to him. Rugged metal board collapsed, beautiful gardens and tidy streets were buried under the windows and doors in sand each hinge, glass-glass window shows the expanded division, as the destruction of the towering sand. A new ghost town was born, is still visible a pair of buildings that remain, there are also building such a theater is still in very good condition, and rest homes destroyed sand and crushed in a row houses a scary ghost
