CHERNOBYL, Take 2! - Back through my archive!...

☢️ O N E - C A R E F U L L - O W N E R ☢️

Another photo of the red Lada (or what's left of it!) in Zalissia - just inside the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.

This village was our first stop inside the zone. Abandoned even though it's slightly further from the blast (almost 30km) than the town of Chernobyl which is still home to a few hundred people - and where we stayed.

Zalissia was very over-grown. Main roads are now no more than footpaths and trees obscure buildings.

Several cars can have been abandoned there - stripped for parts, presumably by looters.

These old Ladas were once a favourite in eastern Europe. In fact we saw a few pootling around the city of Kiev where we spent a couple of days after leaving the exclusion zone.
