Replica of Paris in China becomes ghost town...

PHOTOS: If you thought this photo was of a dramatic lightning strike over Paris, France, we'll forgive you. It is, in fact, over Tianducheng, China, where developers built a scaled replica of the Eiffel Tower along with Parisian-style houses meant to accommodate more than 10,000 people. However, the project was a flop. Only a few people moved in, and local media have labeled Tianducheng a "ghost town." Photographer Aly Song captures scenes of life in this strange little version of Paris. http://yhoo.it/12V1rV9
