The Lost City

It looks like something from a post-apocalyptic future, and…well, I guess it is. This is Chernobyl, 20 years later. Nature has invaded the abandoned city – unbelievably, almost all of the trees in the above photo are new growth since 1986. Do yourself a favor and check out Alexandr Vikulov’s amazing photos over at English Russia.
