The spooky remains of a once thriving town lie abandoned following the nuclear disaster at the Fukushima Power Plant.
Over 160,000 people were forced to evacuate and flee when the disaster occurred following the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and a devastating tsunami. Over 8,400 people died when an enormously powerful 9.0-magnitude quake struck.
Multiple explosions at the plant and radiation forced the evacuation and much of the surrounding area remains a ghost town. Residents were not allowed back until 2017 but of the 21,000 that were offered a place, only around 1,000 chose to return.
