Ashio Mine (足尾銅山) is the most famous abandoned mine in Japan. The area is huge and contains many little towns, in which you can spend easily a few weeks if you want to visit everything. Some buildings and houses are abandoned, some others not yet, but the industry doubtlessly is.

    Checked this out today.  Was gutted to see the main structure has been torn down : (  Still worth the trip though

      It seems they’re actively destroying the place. Do you have a link with your pictures? That would be super to see them :)

    Spoke to some guy walking his dog nearby, apparently they tore it down sometime last year.  Theres a jimusho right next to the seirenjo now.  Will try and upload some photo’s soon and send a link.

      That would be cool to see, yeah. When I went there, I met a few workers as well somewhere around it.
