  • I swem here several years....
  • о таком бассейне могут до сих пор мечтать многие детсады и школы
  • Its called the Azure and you are allowed to climb up the diving boards. The pool si empty so if you jump i guess you will crack your head open and the radioactivity will get in and kill you.
  • ive seen pics of this pool. it is interesting to see it from the air.
  • This is amazing i have seen these pictures on Call of Duty 4(ps3 game) It's quite amazing to see that they were based on real places.

  • Alan, COD 4 was highly inaccurate with the Ferris wheel and the Pool, the pool was MUCH farther away. also, COD4 was only for Xbox 360, I thought... But, enough video game references.
  • Enough of the COD4 fasination crap already. Nobody cares about it except your wannabe war hero wanker buddies.
  • Одно из мест, наиболее подвергаемое вандализму со стороны туристов.
  • isn't ironic that the pool was used for 10 years by chernobyl nuclear power plant emplowees as a place if leisure but got shut down in 1996 after a failed SANITARY INSPECTION??
  • fredo98: Where did you hear that from? Presuming the pool had water in it during the explosion, they would have had to drain all of the radioactive water and dispose of it, then scrub every surface the water touched, including the insides of the pipes and pumping system. THEN they'd need to seal the building so zero dust could enter, or else it'd collect in the pool and re-contaminate it within a week. With a Are you sure somebody wasn't playing a joke on you?
