IGNALINA, Lithuania - Walking along the top of Lithuania's decommissioned nuclear reactor, which was a set for HBO's critically acclaimed Chernobyl TV series, tourist Vytas Miknaitis says he's not "afraid at all".
"They know what they're doing," the retired computer engineer from Chicago says, referring to organizers of the three-hour tour of the Ignalina power station in eastern Lithuania.
Similar in design to the Chernobyl reactor nearly 450 kilometers away, Ignalina provided the backdrop for the show's outdoor scenes, shot last year.
