Im an absolute fan of the story of the Titanic, and i love the movie specially the part that talks about the ship itself and the part in where we see the ship sinking, people just say it is a stupid movie but because they just pay attention to the love story, but it is the ship story which is interesting, just to iamgine all that luxury in it and it all was ruined, all the people etc... well...

Well you could have known about it but perhaps you didnt have to, it ocurred on 1986 when a nuclear reactor exploded, the nuclear power station was Chernobyl and when it exploded the radiation in the nearby city was too high, so people was forced to abandone the city, since then many people died and well, other not nice stuff... so Prypiat is the city that was abandoned, and many photos of it can be seen in the net, look.

The city can actually be visited with a tourist guide, it is jsut empty, its a shame that, as it always happens with theseplaces they are vandalized once they are empty.
