The sole fact you're standing 300 m away from the worst nuclear disaster in world history makes you creepy and scared what'd happen with mankind if things went little more wrong than they actually did. It's a place to remember, to learn and to pay your respects for those who gave their lives preventing a catastrophy on a bigger scale.

Came here as part of a group tour. Had never heard of the radar stations but did know about the wood pecking noises. We were guided around by our registered guide - you cannot visit without being part of a proper group and entering the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone officially and with a permit. The radars themselves are immense - there are two. I've never seen annoying like it in my life and having already visited a former nuclear missile launch centre in Ukraine this visit really hit home. You are not officially permitted to enter the buildings, however we were shown into some of the former computer rooms, the control room and to see some of the things left by the Soviets after they closed down and evacuated. The whole site is overgrown, ransacked and empty to a large degree, however it is brought to life by the guide. Well worth visiting.
