Hm don't get me wrong, but moving along that road looks like in Greece, lots of litter beside the streets and very dry.
Or outside of Houston - all flat, and dry, and litter ..

Less radiation though...in theory...

I've seen many pictures on websites of the immediate vicinity but I'll always struggle to understand why it is so.....an absolute wasteland.

I believe it only looks like that when the pictures were taken in autumn. On summer pictures you can see green trees and that nature is reclaiming Prypjat.
