Bunker 42
I went back to Bunker 42, after nine years?
It was like this last time.
Perhaps, it opened to the public really quickly and barely functioned as a museum.
The massive underground ruins felt like a bunker site.
And now it’s sort of like a ‘Cold War Wax museum’.
To begin with, it was different from the entrance gate.
And inside, a wax work museum of sorts.
It’s comical somehow perhaps but it was really interesting
There are rooms that have been accurately and beautifully recreated.
Apparently when the Cuban crisis happened, everyone carrying keys got together and were on the verge of pushing the nuclear missile launch button.
It seems Stalin made fun of Truman when the Potsdam talks began, but Russia also proceeded to arm themselves with nuclear weapons, knowing that the bomb would be dropped on Hiroshima a few days later. The large nuclear bunker was built as a part of this.
If you want to know more about the history and have the chance to go to Moscow, why not visit once?
As an attraction, I was given the opportunity to experience a simulation of pressing the nuclear button.

The experience this time was thought-provoking.

Along with the atomic bomb.
