Moscow traffic jams bother people of the city a lot, at least according to what they say. So Russian blogger Ilya went under the ground into Moscow's metro to avoid his next jam. There he encountered what might be called "an underground

traffic jam" with people standing in line for hours to get back to their homes after the workday is over. "You can spend more time in a subway traffic jam than in a jam on the surface!", says Ilya. Let's see what he saw there!

A group of young people infiltrated the airport of Pulkovo for an extreme excursion. Dressed in reflective vests, they simply climbed over the fence and started to walk along the territory of the guarded planes. They took plenty of pictures, got into helicopters and planes, and had a lot of fun. Now the

administration of the airport, having seen their photos, is going to investigate the incident. The company may be finally punished. But it's probably just a reason to think about better protection of Pulkovo, isn't it? This way or another, we thank the guys for the risk and these curious images.

Gorky Nuclear Heating Plant started to be built in the early 1980s and was never finished for multiple reasons including public protests and the collapse of the USSR, of course. The plant hasn't been completed, the reactor unit hasn't been assembled, and fuel

was never brought... That's why the place is considered safe for visiting from the point of view of radiation hazard. The brave blogger lana-sator included this place in the list of great abandoned objects she has to see and shoot for us.
