Kolmanskop este faimosul oras fantoma din Namibia. Este situat in partea de sud a desertului Namib, la 10 km de orasul port Luderitz.

Dupa ce au fost descoperite diamantele in acest oras, in 1908, nu a mai durat mult pana cand acest oras a fost transformat intr-un stil germanic din punct de vedere arhitectural. Datorita bunastarii produse de industria diamantelor, orasul avea toate elementele specifice unui oras luxos european, in ciuda locatiei izolate. Avea un spital, ballroom, centrala electrica, scoala, teatru, sala de sport, cazino, fabrica de gheata si chiar primul tramvai din Africa.

Cu toate acestea, dupa dispartia diamantelor, orasul Kolmanskop a fost in cele din urma parasit in 1956, iar de atunci desertul a acoperit incet in nisip, cladirile orasului.

Kolmanskop is the poster child of Namibian ghost towns. Since the last residents left 60 years ago the desert has been doing its best to reclaim the land that the once thriving mining community was built upon. ---------- #namibia #desert #ghosttown #abandoned #agameoftones #softlight #sand #dunes #travelphotography #travel #explore #remote #wanderlust #instapic #picoftheday #travelgram #instatravel #amazingplaces #blue #orange

Sometimes on my travels I come across objects out of place and can't help but wonder: What's the story here? Guess I'll never know since there is no more people left in Kolmanskop and even less water for an outside bath! ---------- #namibia #kolmanskop #ghosttown #abandoned #bath #desert #sand #dunes #ruins #agameoftones #travelgram #travelphotography #explore #travel #wanderlust #outdoorlife #overland #amazingplaces #ishootwithorms
