Lost Places - Chornobyl Zone

This reporting has turned out not absolutely usual. Actually it consists of two absolutely different parts written by two different people, of the different age, living in different cities of Ukraine and friends exclusively by the forum on pripyat.com

I was not in a city from the beginning of summer and have started missing it a little. All the summer long we with Natasha travelled around on the Zone, but for Pripyat somehow there was no time... Therefore, when one week before a trip Sasha Sirota has called me and told - "Lets go to Pripyat", I did not deliberate a second: certainly we will go!

Zhitomir area.
Ovruch district.

Lypski Romany, Zhurba, Budoliubivka, Stara Radcha, Dovgy Lis.

August, 25th 2006. Kyiv - Korosten - Ovruch. We move to Belarus border. Short of Rudnya we are turned off from the road in the right in a direction of Berezhest.

Touch to HISTORY

The first day of summer. 7 AM. We go to the Zone, on ChNPP. Today we will go to that place where the history of our country 20 years ago has changed, in general it has changed for whole world - BShU 4 (CR-4) (a block control panel of the fourth power unit of ChNPP).
