25 years passed...but what is left? What do you know about April 26, 1986. It was the day of the nuclear melt down in Bloc 4 of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. It was a day a nuclear cloud spreading radioactive particles started its journey over wide parts of Central and Eastern Europe. 25 years after this disaster: What is left? We can book trips to Pripyat which was discovered as a touristic attraction and we can get all information about the event in the internet. But how do we see it? Myth Chernobyl is a youth exchange in which young people from 5 countries met and discussed these topics.
