The town is situated less than 3 kilometers from Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Before the Chernobyl disaster the town had around 48,000 inhabitants. After the accident people were forced to leave their home with a promise they would be back in 5 days. They never could go back. Radioactive contamination here is still very high, and one needs a special permit to enter this area.In original language:Aufgegeben Klavier in PripyatKlavier Ð Ein Klavier mit dem Markennamen "Ukraine", zurueckgelassen in einer verlassenen Wohnung in Pripyat. Pripyat ist weniger als drei Kilometer entfernt vom Tschernobyler Atomkraftwerk. Vor der Reaktorexplosion hatte die Stadt knapp 50.000 Einwohner. Nach dem Unfall wurden sie zwangsevakuiert - mit dem Versprechen, sie koennten nach fuenf Tagen zurueckkehren. Dazu kam es nie. Die radioaktive Verseuchung ist immer noch sehr hoch. Um dieses Gebiet zu betreten, braucht man eine besondere Genehmigung.Locations:Eastern Europe-Pripyat-UkraineDate:27 Jul, 2005Credit:© Vaclav Vasku / GreenpeaceMaximum size:2592px X 1944pxKeywords:Close ups-Day-Indoors-KWCI (GPI)-Musical instruments-Nuclear (campaign title)-Nuclear accidents-Nuclear energy-Nuclear radiation-PianosShoot:Chernobyl 20 Years After the Nuclear DisasterDocumentation of regions and people affected by the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster, photographed nearly twenty years after the event.
