Home > Zone of alienation

The Zone of Alienation (or simply the Zone) is what Russians call the 30km exclusion zone around the site of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor accident. The name is apparently a term lifted from a Soviet science fiction novel written by the Strugatsky brothers more than a decade before the accident. The area was once home to 120,000 people, living in 90 communities. It is now uninhabitable. Contaminated buildings, vehicles and possessions were all left to fall into disrepair and decay after the area was evacuated.
