14 things to doin ChernobylThe most contaminated with radiation area around the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant was named a 30-kilometer exclusion zone.
After the Chernobyl disaster, residents within a radius of 30 kilometers from the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant were evacuated. The nuclear power plant, the city of Pripyat and several nearby settlements entered the exclusion zone. This area was most polluted by radiation, although a large area of contaminated territories remained outside the exclusion zone. Only the workers serving the station were allowed to enter here, but only under the strict supervision of dosimetrist and with all the relevant documents.
