Also known as ‘The graveyard of the Earth’, Ozersk, is a secluded city in Russia and is located inside Chelyabinsk Oblast, Russia. Under the Soviet regime, it was only known as City-40 and the birthplace of the Soviet nuclear weapons program. For quite some time, residents were prohibited to leave the city, nor were they allowed to make contact with the outside world, so much so that their identities were even erased from the Soviet census. Very surprisingly, they were provided luxurious commodities that outshone any other cities in the country. Even today, it is out of bounds to visitors. With the radioactivity from the Mayak incident in the area, it is probably not the best idea to visit either.
