Traveling to Chernobyl, Ukraine

Question

I'm very interested in traveling to Chernobyl in the next few years. I'm a photographer and it's just been a dream of mine since I was a child to shoot there. I cannot, however, find out much information on traveling there.

I've gone through search engines and such and only come up with stories of the disaster, which I already know about.I have yet to find any info on how to go about traveling there: getting in and the rules and regulations that probably go along with it.

Anyone know any websites or books I should read? Maybe any advice from someone whose been there or knows someone who has?

Answer 1

I don't know anything about traveling in that part of the world, but take along your radiation suit.  

It's STILL hot there from the accident in 1985 - 86, whatever it was.  People are dying there because of the radiation poisoning!
