Gunkanjima
The official name of this island, located about 40 minutes from Nagasaki Port, is "Hashima Island". It was registered as a World Heritage Site in 2015 as a cultural heritage site. Hashima Island, an undersea coal mine, is an artificial island created by reclaiming land around a reef. Japan's first "high-rise reinforced concrete apartment building" was built here, and the appearance of the reinforced concrete buildings standing on the island resembles the battleship "Tosa", so it came to be called "Battleship Island". As the main energy source shifted from coal to oil, industry declined and the mine was closed, and the island became uninhabited, but even now, its appearance still attracts people.
