Chernobyl & Pripyat - October 2012

[ImmortalShadow]

No doubt this place has been done a fair few times and you all know the history, so I'll get on with the photos.

This was a visit that was mainly organised by Strefazero, but also by Carbonangel on another well-known UrbEx forum. This was my first time here.

I'm hoping to go back.

Anyway...

There were a fair few scary-looking dolls lying around, this was one!

There's some incredible artwork and murals on walls in buildings! This was in the Post Office.

...and what's an UrbEx trip without a rooftop with a decent view?

Thanks, all

Yeah, there's a thread on the other forum with other people's photos from this trip on. They put mine to shame!

The sky was a pain in the backside, but never mind.

Even though we spent a little less than 2 and a half days in the zone, I didn't see everything I wanted to. I also went to the "Jupiter" factory - that itself you could spend a few days exploring. It's MASSIVE!

Thanks very much!

I really hope I get another chance to go.

Quade - I'm jealous of you going in February - you'll love it. Some tips for you, though...depending on how long you're going there for, have a plan of where you want to go and when, the place is huge so chances are, you won't see all of what you want to see.

Also, take walkie-talkies with you if you're going with people you know. That way, if you wonder off, you can keep in contact with each other.
