Hashima (Battleship Island)

Not sure whether to put this here or in architecture.

I picked this up in a souvenir shop in Nagasaki during a recent trip to Japan: a model of Hashima Island (or Gunkanjima Island or Battleship Island). It is an uninhabited island near Nagasaki, used for coal mining, and with a dark history of forced labour in World War 2. It was made a World Heritage Site in 2015. It was also used as one of the locations in the movie Skyfall.
The model is by Yoshinaka.jp, who also designed a number of free models for the Canon Japan website. It took just one day to build.
