The Moynaq Ship Graveyard, Uzbekistan
The Moynaq Ship Graveyard is a ghost town in the middle of the Uzbekistani desert, almost 100 miles away from the nearest shore.
Once one of the four largest lakes in the world (it was 26,300 square miles), the Aral Sea dried up when the rivers feeding it were diverted for irrigation purposes in the 1960s.
Today, dozens of abandoned ships are disintegrating in the scorching desert heat.
