Russian Nuclear Bunker Tour

We went and saw the bunker in a little remote area of Latvia. It was in case there was nuclear war and it was kept classified until 2003! It is a fully sustainable environment for 250 for up to 3 months. It has a power facility, water, cooking facilities, and it is 5 meters under the ground under layers of concrete, lead, and other "protective" elements from a  nuclear bomb with "direct" communication to Moscow. When the Soviets left Riga, they left everything. So there is equipment, papers, a suitcase, even jackets! It was incredible! A "MUST" do if you ever come to Latvia! :)
