Minsk resident Maxim Nikitka-Mirovich aka maxim_nm writes: “In the city of Pripyat, due to its current state, it is strictly forbidden to enter any buildings. This ban appeared several years ago, its implementation is strictly monitored by patrols passing through the territory of an abandoned city, and this ban is primarily related to the safety of the visitors themselves. I must say that these measures are justified - the interiors of the city without people are gradually turning into something completely different, and it is not safe to be inside buildings.

However, closed doors are there to be entered. Let's walk around some of the big buildings in the city center."

Interiors of Pripyat

1. Not far from the entrance to the hotel "Polesie" several modern graffiti in the style of "shadow" are drawn. Former residents of Pripyat were outraged on the Internet because of their appearance (they say they violate the authenticity of the city), but I really like these drawings.

2. The second drawing near the entrance faded - apparently, this is the effect of precipitation.

3. The entrance to the hotel looks like this. The staircase has turned from time to time into a kind of flat ramp. On the right, some metal pipes are lying around, most likely this is the work of the “black metalworkers”, who are dragging everything metal from the Zone. Apparently, this time the metal removal was stopped by a patrol.

4. Some kind of side entrance to the hotel (probably for the administration or staff). Corridors.

6. Room with electrical equipment. All equipment has long been torn out with meat and taken out in an unknown direction.

7. Kitchen. Everything is broken, the slab is torn to the ground, only one skeleton remains. A door has disappeared from the doorway along with a part of the door frame and platbands.

8. Some room. It seems that there are no closed doors in Pripyat at all.

9. The next building is the Energetik Palace of Culture.

10. The staircase at the entrance also almost turned into a smooth ramp. Entering the building on a hill of sand and debris is very unusual.

11. Inside - a socialist realist fresco with collective farmers, horses and something resembling either the details of spaceships, or mushrooms grown in a radioactive forest.

12. But it is not the fresco that attracts my attention. I pay attention to the floor - for some reason it is never photographed when visiting buildings in Pripyat. It is the floor that impresses the most. Firstly, it completely changes the feeling of walking around the building - you have to completely rebuild your navigation skills and constantly look under your feet - there are a lot of dangerous debris and debris on the floor.

13. And secondly, looking at the floor, you understand how the whole city is falling apart. Large fragments gradually break up into smaller parts; the tree stratifies, and its small particles simply “dissolve”, the glass crumbles and becomes sand again.

15. Everything that once served man has now become garbage, which is dangerous to walk on. The man is redundant here.

19. Gym with wall bars. A fire hose was stolen from the PC section - who needed it? However, it is very likely that fire hoses were somehow used in the liquidation work to decontaminate Pripyat.

21. In damp places, the floor inside the building turns into dust, and fern sprouts from cracks in the walls.

22. It is dangerous to walk around the premises. This is the hole in the floor that my foot left. It’s good that there was a very small distance from the floor sheathing to the load-bearing floor.

25. The next building is the Azure pool. The first floor looks like this

26. Registration. Pay attention to the stencil with phone numbers - it turns out that firefighters in Pripyat were called by a rather complicated composite number.

27. There is also a gym in the pool building, now it looks like this. The shield from the basketball hoop is surprisingly well preserved - unlike the surrounding interior, it is almost untouched by time.

28. The pool itself was rather big, with jumping towers.

30. Some utility room. Judging by the couch and a specific chest of drawers - a first-aid post. On the floor to the right of the couch lies someone's sneaker with a yellowed and hardened rubber sole.

31. Upper tier. Pay attention to the very top - it turns out that the Azure pool building was not built entirely of monolithic concrete, as one might think. Soviet brickwork does not inspire confidence in its appearance, and, apparently, it will soon begin to crumble.

32. Showers.

33. All plumbing has been dismantled and removed, and despite the fact that the pool functioned until the mid-nineties - for liquidators and station workers.
