Chernobyl: The Nuclear Meltdown That Created Ghost Towns

Dolls, letters, cars, and theme parks remain exactly where they were abandoned 30+ years ago - like the whole city was suspended in time. With the help of a guide, tourists can go visit the city and see an eerie piece of history for themselves. While the radiation has decayed over time, levels can still be potentially dangerous for visitors touring areas surrounding Chernobyl. Because of this, all visitors are scanned for radiation both entering and exiting the “exclusion zone” - a 1000 square mile area around the reactor controlled by the government. Would you go visit?
