Post-apocalyptic books and films are now more popular than ever. One gets the impression that the world is preparing for the coming Catastrophe. So Russian artists fantasize about what may become of Moscow after the End of Times.
Recently, one of the most popular topics of tourism has become abandons - abandoned buildings, villages and even entire cities. Someone goes to the next street, where an unfinished house has been rising for twenty years. Someone in the neighboring area, where there is an abandoned military town. And someone flies halfway across the world to Chernobyl, Pripyat, Famagusta, Gankadzhima and many others.
People walk along these empty streets, take pictures. And no one even wants to think that the same can happen to their hometown. For example, with Moscow. Namely, such a Moscow - abandoned, almost abandoned by people, we can see in the illustrations that appeared on the Internet a couple of days ago. Agree, it is unusual to see Red Square without hundreds of tourists and just passers-by, without the police, the Mausoleum, paving stones, the tricolor on the Kremlin.
But all this can happen. After all, the residents of Pripyat, going to bed on the evening of April 25, 1986, also did not think that tomorrow would change their life and the life of their hometown forever. So there is something to think about.
