North America is a vast and diverse continent, but there is a common thread throughout: ghost towns. While one state is known for having the most ghost towns in the U.S., British Columbia takes the black-frosted cake as the region with the most ghost towns in North America at 1,500. Sandon, British Columbia's most fascinating ghost town, became known as the "Monte Carlo of North America," with its dozens of hotels, saloons, and the biggest red light district in western Canada. In the ensuing years, Canada would send about 22,000 Japanese citizens from the west coast of British Columbia to remote ghost towns like Sandon and Kaslo in 1942. Once the war ended, these sites became abandoned yet again, and now, you can visit them by taking a road trip around the Valley of the Ghosts.
