Radioactive contamination in Pripyat is still very high. One needs a special permit to enter this area. Before the Chernobyl accident, the town of Pripyat was considered the "glory" of the former Soviet Union. More than 48,000 inhabitants were living here - less than 3 kilometers from the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Many of them were employed directly in the power plant. Today Pripyat is like a ghost town.In original language:Verlassenes Krankenhaus in PripyatVor dem Reaktorunfall von Tschernobyl galt die Stadt Pripyat als "Prunkstueck" der damaligen Sowjetunion. Mehr als 48.000 Menschen lebten hier Ð nur drei Kilometer vom Atomkraftwerk entfernt, wo viele Pripyater auch arbeiteten. Heute ist Pripyat eine Geisterstadt. Die radioaktive Verseuchung ist immer noch sehr hoch. Um dieses Gebiet zu betreten, braucht man eine besondere Genehmigung.Locations:Eastern Europe-Pripyat-UkraineDate:28 Jul, 2005Credit:© Vaclav Vasku / GreenpeaceMaximum size:2592px X 1944pxKeywords:Day-Destruction-Hospitals-Indoors-KWCI (GPI)-Men-Nuclear (campaign title)-Nuclear accidents-Nuclear energy-Nuclear radiation-One personShoot:Chernobyl 20 Years After the Nuclear DisasterDocumentation of regions and people affected by the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster, photographed nearly twenty years after the event.
