Explore the ghost town in Namibia

Kolmanskop is a "ghost town" in the Namib desert in southern Namibia. This place is small but used to be a very famous diamond.

After discovering this area full of diamonds, hundreds of "hunters" from Germany focused on Kolmanskop, making remote areas prosper.

Kolmanskop is built in the architectural style of a German town, with full facilities and play areas such as casino, cinema, swimming pool, ballroom, power plant, ice factory, .

The town began to decline after the First World War, the time when the diamonds were exhausted.

Finally, in 1954 Kolmanskop became a desolate "ghost" town when a German architect and the last resident left town.

After decades of abandonment, houses are being encroached by sand.

The sand flows into the interior of the houses, creating a wild and cold landscape.

A house was submerged by sand near flooded doors.

"Ghost" houses are full of secrets.

In recent years, Kolmanskop town has become a great attraction for tourists.

The town was also chosen by the directors as a backdrop for many popular movies.
