In addition to the other definitions, the Zone can also refer to The Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant (CNPP) Zone of Alienation in Ukraine. It was established following the 1986 disaster at the CNPP to limit access to irradiated areas. For some, it's an alluring place for a couple of reasons:
1. Peace and quiet - even though the Zone is close to inhabited areas, there's very few people inside, and they mostly mind their own business.
2. Beauty - The Zone offers a unique display of nature being untouched and cut off from the rest of the world. It is one of the most biologically diverse places in Ukraine. The structures within (such as the city of Pripyat) have also been overgrown by plants which creates an oddly beautiful mix of foliage and Soviet architecture.
3. Significance - Many people are interested in the history of Chernobyl or just exploring abandoned sites. Many have seen the Chernobyl series or played the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. video games. Those people might feel a special connection to the place.
People used to visit the Zone, either through agencies that offer trips there or illegally. Illegal visitors are referred to as "Stalkers". In 2022, the Zone was closed due to the war. An increase in radiation levels was reported, as the movement of military vehicles has kicked up radioactive dust. If it's reopened in the future and you decide to go, please act decent. Don't take things out, don't bring things in, don't destroy or move anything.

Some find the Zone scary, some find it beautiful. The Zone itself however, doesn't care who you are. Treat it with respect and caution, and it'll show you its wonders. Dig trenches in the Red Forest, and it'll make you glow in the dark.
