Resumen de Fukushima ghost town reopens
Namie is a ghost town, its backstreets deserted, its shops shuttered.

The town was hurriedly evacuated six years ago after an earthquake and tsunami triggered a meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station a few kilometers away. Here, Pearce examines whether the town is ready for the return of its population.
