Namibia🇳🇦, Kolmanskop

Kolmanskop is a long–abandoned city in Namibia. Founded by German colonists during the diamond boom at the beginning of the last century, the place has existed for less than half a century. Now the Kolmanskop is a popular attraction among foreign tourists, reminding of the frailty of modern civilization. Usually travelers come here as part of a tour of national parks and neighboring ghost towns, since an hour-and-a-half excursion with a photo session to get acquainted with the half-buried Kolmanskop is quite enough

Popularity returned to the city at the beginning of the XXI century, when the tourist industry of Namibia began to develop rapidly. The authorities quickly carried out cosmetic repairs of the most preserved objects of Kolmanskop, restored the casino and gym, cleared the sand rubble if possible.
