Ghost town

Ghost town
For 90 years Gwalia was a goldmining town. The mine closed in the 1960's and people just abandoned it. Now it sits quietly disintegrating in the middle of the West Australian desert, near Leonora.

No. There are people living in the tiny desert town of Leonora, about 5 km away. Leonora is about 250 km from any other town. They are old gold mining sites.
