Wow, this place is really something. Thanks to all of the people here who hang out at Byberry and tell the rest of us what it's like --it has it's own subculture, way more than other places. Thanks Motts, its awesome!

I used to really hate swimming pool floor areas like around and inside the changing rooms...all wet and sometimes dirty and people walkin around in bare feet...this photo makes me feel a bit sick...
No, it's wonderful that nature was used as a means of giving the patients some connection with the outside world. It may even have been done by one of the patients as art therapy. I love it
No, those are the wooden window frames holding the panes of glass in.
When these places were built (before the advent of plastics and other strong synthetics), metal bars or screens were often the only way to prevent people from jumping out of windows and down stairwells.
of course it's not fake! why shouldn't there be a panic button for staff? My mum worked in an institution where she cared for physically handicapped people and she was often attacked. Surely this is for such times?
Gets me why there's a full stop there though ;)
The town of Pripyat is becoming a bit of a tourist trap, but still looks incredible - I hope to visit it in the next years, and explore the lesser known abandonments in Kiev / Belarus. It's really just a matter of coming up with the cash.
