Chernobyl vacation

We will visit many fascinating places and, of course, the famous ones, listed below, will not be omitted:

  • Pripyat today is a ghost town overgrown with grass and trees. Back in a day, it was a young but a very fast-growing and perspective town. Almost 50 000 people of 25 nationalities lived there by the night of the accident. Today it’s a maze of deserted streets and crumbling buildings.
  • The amusement park and the legendary Ferris wheel – a gloomy landmark and iconic symbol that everyone wants to photograph.
  • The Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant itself. Following a massive accident inside Unit 4 and a series of other accidents, the Power Plant was shut down completely on December 15th, 2000.
  • The huge New Safe Confinement which was installed over Unit 4 in November 2016. It weighs 36,200 tonnes and can easily cover the Colosseum in Rome.
