A year after the meltdown of the Soviet nuclear power plant in the Ukraine, people are still struggling to escape.
Some people have relocated to other countries, others are looking for new ways to get around the deadly radioactive fallout.
But many are still finding their way back to Chernobyl.
The park, which opened last October in the Chernobyl exclusion zone, is the only one of its kind in Europe, and is a huge success.
It attracts tourists from all over the world, with some groups numbering in the hundreds of thousands.
The Chernobyl zone is home to more than 1,200 buildings and is home of about 60% of the world’s radioactive waste.
Many of the buildings are still open and functional.
Some have been renovated and reopened, but most are not.
The first thing visitors see is the huge, glowing green screen above the water, which is the sign that the Chernoyevsk nuclear power station has been hit by an earthquake and meltdown.
The screen is illuminated by a green LED light.
The city of Kherson, about 25 kilometers (15 miles) north of the capital, is another popular tourist attraction.
The park has attracted many visitors to this area of the city since it opened, with many locals in the area coming out to enjoy the sights.
“It’s not easy to get here, because the radiation levels are so high,” said Maria, a tourist from Russia.
“But the city is beautiful, and I love the atmosphere here.
You don’t feel claustrophobic.
It’s nice to feel this peace.”
Maria’s friend, Aleksandr, a 28-year-old Russian national, was not so lucky.
Aleksander has lived in Khersa for several years, but he recently moved to the area because of the danger of the radiation.
He and his friends are staying in the park because it is safe.
He said that the city of Chernobyl is a little like the Chernobalt area of Russia.
He has seen some of the attractions in the exclusion zone.
“It’s like Chernobyl in the West, with a big open space.
You can’t get lost,” he said.
Khersa is a relatively small town, about 100 people in total.
It is surrounded by farmland and has been built on reclaimed land.

“I’m glad to see a nuclear power park reopened,” said Aleksandra, a resident of Khelikovka.
“They should open a new amusement park.”
In the meantime, the residents are trying to get by.
“The residents of Chernobaclasts are not allowed to leave the exclusion area,” said Vadim, a 35-year old farmer.
“We have to get used to this, we’re not allowed here.”
Many of the residents of Khersa, who have stayed for years, have also moved back to other cities.
The Kherskis have a good connection with the outside world.
“When we visit Kherscas, it’s like we’re back in Russia,” said Elena, a 39-year long resident.
“If I was not in Khersas, I wouldn’t be in the town.
It would be so hard to stay.”
The Chernoblatas exclusion zone has been closed to all visitors for almost a year, after the reactor meltdown, but has been reopened to the public for several days this week.
Residents and tourists have been allowed to walk through the zone, although there are limited access roads and police checkpoints are now required.
Some people are staying at Chernobyl’s famous amusement park in the Khersavskis.
The parks website says that the amusement park has attractions that attract children, such as an amusement park with rides, a karaoke bar, and an indoor water slide.
Some of the Chernokastes residents who have not been allowed into the zone are staying on the outskirts of the exclusion.
The most famous residents of the area are the residents who own the Chernofsky power plant, which was one of the worst of the three reactors that melted down.
The power plant was the first to be damaged and the largest to be destroyed in history.
In the immediate aftermath, the city had to be evacuated.
It has since reopened.
