The citizens of Chernobyl highly anticipated the opening of Amusement Park in Pripyat City. The park was all set to be opened on May 1, 1986, but the Chernobyl disaster happened in the same year. The Ferris wheel is still there to remind people of the 1986 accident.
By the way, the amusement park opened for just a couple of hours on April 27 so that people could enjoy the rides before the start of evacuation. We recommend you to watch 2019 mini-series titledChernobyl. The breathtaking dramatization of the chaos and horrors of the disaster is simply brilliant. It was an unsettling incident, but the mini-series brilliantly shows the entire affair.
