When Reactor 4 at the Chernobyl Power Plant exploded radioactive particles were sent into the air around Chernobyl and the nearby town of Pripyat. However, despite the obvious danger that still remains at the site, thousands visit each year.

A number of companies offer both private and group tours to the area.
