Abandoned Town as Art
Belgium ordered the abandonment of the town of Doel in the 1990's to make way for a port facility. The buildings were never razed, and instead of a port, it is now part of a nature preserve.
But over the years squatters have painted murals on many of the structures, turning this ghost town into an art museum that will slowly be reclaimed by nature.
