Vegetation is overtaking the Fukushima exclusion zone, eight years after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant disaster.
In the eerily isolated area, buildings are leaning, windows are broken, shrines are slowly toppling. In this video, the host of Abroad in Japan visits the exclusion zone and speaks to residents and officials about the future of the region. This is not disaster tourism, it’s a well made video about the aftermath of the disaster and Japan’s 40-year-plan to restore the area.
