RE: Independence Mining Ghost Town

It's incredible how most of the places that were so rich in precious stones ended up as ghost towns instead of some rich places that offer a lot to visitors even many years later since the mining activity ended. We have a similar city in Romania too and it's nothing but a ghost town, quite the opposite of what we expect to see for the sake of its history.

Sort:  

Oh cool, what town is it, in Romania? I guess no mining spot can provide for a long time.

Roșia Montană is the name of the city. And yeah, definitely :(

I gotta check this place out later. Im at the wedding right now!
