An Abandoned fishing village that is lost in time  军

There is an island in the middle of the ocean in the East China Sea that is unlike any other island in the world.  Part of the island is a tourist destination for many Chinese on holiday with its beautiful winding streets and plethora of sea food dishes.  The sunsets are one of the better ones I have witnessed here as they are free from the pollution engulfing the big cities on mainland China.    This islands name is Goqui Island….but there is a hidden part…

The other part of the island mirrors an image out of a post apocalyptic movie.  You have to arrange an old clunker boat to go there to spend your day.  This abandoned fishing village was the thriving center of the island to fishermen and their families.  But feeling the need to keep up with better wages, many of them moved to mainland China and left their houses to Mother Nature.

The scenery is absolutely stunning with many houses being overgrown with vines and weeds or sorts.  As many houses are crumbling away, you must be careful where you walk and should stay on the path. 

This was defiantly a highlight in China as it is not a major tourist destination and the photography is beautiful here.  Take a minute to look at the pictures below and I am sure you will agree….
