Pripyat City of Lost dreams

February 4, 1970 in connection with the construction of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant near the city of Kiev was founded a new city - Pripyat

Small, with a population of 50,000 people, the city has become a benchmark for Soviet cities. Strict style and layout gave the city its charm

But April 26, 1986, everything changed. Accident occurred on urban development enterprise - the Chernobyl nuclear power plant

City radioactive ashes sprinkled, the entire population was hastily evacuated

Since then, Pripyat stands a monument to the dead human negligence
