The radiation levels are low enough to visit; you just should't live there.

All the same. Them being that near reactor 4 and all of its goodness. Kinda spooky.

Pripyat, a town near Chernobyl, is often pointed as one of the creepiest places in the planet, what with his hastily abandoned nurseries and horror movie hospitals...

Kinja'd!!!

Kinja'd!!!

To be honest though, I'd really like to visit.

I'd love to visit Pripyat and Chernobyl. Just to see what society looks like when we leave it behind.

Nope, not going to do that ever.

It is enough that my Granddad was there when Nr.4 exploded as he was a general at the red army at the time. He had to oversee the first tries of limiting the damage.

Its worse that we still don't know how to fix it apart from dumping a lot of concrete over everything and just waiting.

Jesus...I mean, that Elephant's Foot will last centuries. That place is a monument to playing with fire and getting burned.

I'm going there this summer!

It's been a long time dream to visit Pripyat...

Didn't they plan to drop a new cover over it as the old one was poorly and quickly built and is now leaking?

Here in Germany most of nuclear reactors are about to be shut down, and all old ones are already. The question is where to get a substitute for the cheap energy.

Ahhh Chernobyl, one of the most important events in history. Can't wait to go one day.

Seriously you wouldn't want to go just for a couple days? Maybe it's just me being a pro photog but I'd jump out of plane to get a chance to explore and I'm terrified of heights.

"You couldn't pay me enough to do that." .. I would pay to do it myself, would be awesome seeing the ruins in the parts that are now safe to be in for short periods of time.
