This New Settlement in Laprak (ca. 2800m) Gorkha, Nepal, built after the 2015 earthquake, has turned into a ghost settlement. Almost all the houses were not in use. Anecdotal information suggests the construction was not linked to locals' livelihood and sociocultural practices.

Research on Tomorrow's Cities never ends. Listen the tomorrow's predictions that were given in the 60s, which turned true now. If the present risks are undermined, we foresee disasters in the future.
