Prypiat was once a thriving city, home to 50,000 people. But on April 26, 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear disaster struck, and Prypiat was completely evacuated. Today, the city is a ghost town, frozen in time. A visit to Prypiat is a sobering reminder of the dangers of nuclear power, and of the human cost of nuclear disaster.
The city is eerily quiet, with abandoned buildings, schools, hospitals, and homes. There is a feeling of sadness and loss, as if the people who once lived here just disappeared one day. It's a place that makes you think about the fragility of life, and the danger of nuclear power.
If you're brave enough, you can explore the city's abandoned streets and buildings. But be careful - there is still radiation in the area, and it's not safe to stay for too long.
