Yep, we have ALOT of those, especially in remote parts of the country... The thing is that after the fall of the Soviet Union everything was in disarray, people didn't know what to do when the big soviet dictatorship was gone. And many things were abandoned and forgotten... We're still putting the pieces back together in many parts of the country.

7 Abandoned Wonders of the Former Soviet Union: Deserted Cities, Buildings, Bases and More There are amazing abandonments in America but the former Soviet Union has some of the most interesting, unique and strange abandoned buildings. The complex political, military and social history of the country has led to everything from almost-finished buildings abandoned before actual use and entire abandoned cities to chilling gulags in which tens of millions of prisoners met their end.

Wow, top marks for using a screencap of COD4 and passing it off as Chernobyl.

The first pic - the one with a truck - is 3d CG, isn't it? I bet it's a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. screenshot/concept art, too.

Maybe I've been playing too much HL2, but the first picture doesn't look real.
