Slavutich

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

When the Chernobyl power plant in Ukraine exploded catastrophically in 1986, the city of Pripyat, which had been built to house workers for the gigantic project had to be completely evacuated.  The new home for many of the 50k former residents of Pripyat became the newly built town of Slavutych.  Located on the banks of the Dneiper River, the town is about 50 km (around 30 mi) from the Chernobyl Plant and about 200 km (around 120 mi.) from Kiev.  Seen here in this drone video by Paradoxck, the town now has a population of around 25k.
