The hit TV
series "Chernobyl" has attracted a new generation of tourists to the
nuclear disaster zone but guides say that many are more interested in taking
selfies than learning about the accident.
美國熱門電視影集《核爆家園》吸引一群新世代遊客造訪車諾比核災區，但當地導遊說，比起了解核災意外，很多人只想自拍。
Tourists now are
often on the lookout for locations featured in the acclaimed HBO drama and can
be surprised to discover that certain sites were fictional.
遊客現在大多是去探訪出現在這部備受讚譽的HBO影集中的地點，但他們可能會驚訝地發現，劇中有些場景是虛構的。
The abandoned
site had already become a "dark tourism" destination, even before the
eponymous TV show started broadcasting.
早在這個以車諾比為名的影集開播前，這個被遺棄的地方就已成為「黑暗旅遊」的目的地。
Some Ukrainian
travel agencies have further adapted their tours to take in locations from the
"Chernobyl" series and offer special trips, such as kayaking in
rivers around the exclusion zone.
某些烏克蘭旅行社進一步改變行程，加入出現在《核爆家園》的地點，為旅客提供特別之旅，像是在禁制區附近的河流划皮艇。
In July, new
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a decree that aims to develop the
site further as a tourist attraction. In 2018, 72,000 people visited Chernobyl
and it is expected to jump to 100,000 in 2019.（AFP）
