Orașul către care nu duc drumuri: Soarele nu răsare timp de 45 de zile, iar străinii nu pot intra fără un permis special

Norilsk, located in northern Russia, is one of the most inhospitable cities globally, facing extreme weather and significant pollution issues. The city, with a population of around 176,000, is isolated, lacking road connections to the rest of Russia. It is built on vast mineral deposits and has a dark history linked to labor camps. Despite its industrial significance, Norilsk suffers from severe environmental damage, highlighted by a major ecological disaster in 2020. Winters are harsh, with temperatures dropping below -30°C and weeks without sunlight, while summers experience prolonged daylight.
