8Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, Ukraine

The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, established after the catastrophic nuclear disaster in 1986, is a 30-kilometer radius around the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. While some areas within the zone are now open for guided tours, many parts remain off-limits due to high radiation levels and contamination.

The zone is a haunting reminder of the disaster’s impact, with abandoned buildings and ghost towns frozen in time. The restricted areas serve as a powerful testament to the long-lasting effects of nuclear accidents.
