The Awesome Graffiti Of Belgium's Doomed Ghost Town

It's eerie feeling: walking down the streets of a modern town where no one - or almost no one - lives. The roads are still usable, many of the houses look habitable, yet there is barely a car to be seen, certainly not moving, and the rooms behind the windows are all but empty.

This is the abandoned village of Doel, in Belgium. Doel is threatened with complete demolition due to the future enlargement of the harbour of Antwerp.
