Kowloon, Hong Kong

Before its demolition in 1994, Kowloon was the most densely-populated city on earth, with almost 50,000 people living in a city 0.026 square km in size. The town was founded by the Chinese military sometime in the 17th century as a local fort and “abandoned” by local authorities in 1950. The city became a haven for the infamous crime syndicate – the “Triads.” Since the city had no real authorities, residents built their houses on-top of others without following safety codes.

Longyearbyen, Norway

The town of Longyearbyen is the world’s northernmost city. The name of the town is literal, actually meaning “long year.” The sun sets each year on October 25th and does not rise again for four months. The citizens are used to living alongside polar bears and reindeer. It’s home to the world’s northernmost gourmet restaurant, the historic Huset, which boasts one of Europe’s largest wine cellars. But perhaps the most interesting thing about Longyearbyen is that its citizens aren’t allowed to die. There is a cemetery in the town, but it hasn’t been used for 70 years.
