Houtouwan, a once prosperous fishing village on the northern side of Shengshan Island. The village was home to more than 3,000 residents but was reported to be officially depopulated by 2002 because of its remoteness and hard-to-access location.

A natureza pega de volta o que é dela: 10 lugares desabitados onde o mundo vegetal venceu
O ser humano é capaz de criar coisas de uma beleza cegante; ao longo da história conseguiu construir monumentos imponentes, edifícios de um encanto que vai além do tempo, cidades de imponência gigantesca de tirar o fôlego. Afinal, quando saímos de casa nem notamos mais, mas os edifícios que nos rodeiam, sejam modernos ou antigos, são obra da engenhosidade humana que, no entanto, teve que “lutar” contra a vontade da natureza para criar essas obras-primas. Por isso, escolhemos para você alguns dos lugares abandonados mais fascinantes e sinistros do mundo que, na ausência da mão do homem, a Mãe Natureza voltou a reinar.

Costumava ser um grande shopping center com escadas rolantes e andares e galerias cheias de lojas, e agora parece o local perfeito para um filme de ficção científica povoado por zumbis ou uma natureza maligna pronta para recuperar o que um dia foi dela!

Houtouwan About 40 miles southeast of Shanghai, the small island of Shengshan rises up out of the East China Sea. There, the former fishing village of Houtouwan is carpeted with lush, overgrown greenery, a foliage-rich shadow of what it used to be. In the 1990s, the town was home to about 2,000 fishermen and their families. People were prosperous in Houtouwan for a time, but over the years the fishing community couldn’t keep up with growing competition in nearby Shanghai. So, the fish-dependent population eventually migrated to the mainland for better prospects. Over the next few decades, the houses fell into disuse and local plants invaded. Dozens of modern houses that have been overwhelmed by nature dot the hillside right up to the sea. Some of their walls have fallen or their roofs have collapsed, while others have had their industrial finish replaced with blankets of local vines and grasses. Snaking dirt roads connect the abandoned houses and the remains of a fishing port hint at the village’s commercial past. If you peek into some former homes, you can see decaying household objects and decrepit pieces of forgotten furniture. Less than a dozen people still live in Houtouwan today. But instead of profiting from fishing, they’ve turned to something else. Locals now tour a handful of day trippers through the once-thriving village and sell them water, which is the only object for sale in the village. Vendors on the islands sell fresh seafood. Since Houtouwan is nearly abandoned, you can’t stay there, but accommodations are available in nearby villages. #neonurchin #neonurchinblog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #suzyurchin #ollyurchin #art #music #photography #fashion #film #design #words #pictures #china #pacificocean #shengshan #eastchinasea #archipelago #abandonedisland #fishingvillage #touristattraction #flora #fauna #depopulated #wildlife #houtouwan (at Shengshan, Zhejiang, China) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUuS2szIrC_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Houtouwan village, on Shengshan island off the coast of China. Mostly abandoned in the 1990s due to its hard to reach location, and completely abandoned by 2002, nature has since reclaimed this village for its own.
