Ukraine – Chernobyl
“What is the cost of lies?”
Visited: 2016
In November 2016, my father and I visited the Chernobyl disaster site, also known as “the exclusion zone”. We first visited the Chernobyl Museum located in Kiev which I would recommend to visit when you visit Kiev.
The Chernobyl disaster, also referred to as the Chernobyl accident, was a catastrophic nuclear accident. It occurred on 25–26 April 1986 in the No. 4 light water graphite moderated reactor at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant near the now-abandoned town of Pripyat, in northern Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, Soviet Union, approximately north of Kiev.
