Ukraine has announced its intention to turn the area surrounding Chernobyl into a tourist site.
The country's new president Volodymyr Zelensky has signed a decree to introduce walking trails in the site of the worst nuclear disaster in history.
"Chernobyl is a unique place on the planet where nature [has been] reborn after a huge man-made disaster," Zelensky said, adding that there are plans to create waterways and checkpoints in the area.
He said "it has been a negative part of Ukraine's brand" and felt "the time has come to change this".
