A Soviet planned city frozen in time since the 1986 nuclear disaster, with 50,000 evacuated residents. Key sites include an amusement park, hospital, schools, and a cultural palace. Access is only possible through Chernobyl tours. Iconic imagery includes a Ferris wheel, gas masks, and dolls. The city is rapidly deteriorating and part of the Chernobyl exclusion zone with variable radiation levels monitored by guides. Looting has removed many artifacts. Currently inaccessible due to war.
