Sinegorye (2020)
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
AirVuz contributor and pilot iOleg brings us this fascinating drone video from the Russian Far East. The video was filmed over the settlement of Sinegorye, which lies on the Kolyma River in the oblast (province) of Magadan. The development of Sinegorye occurred in the 1970's in connection with a giant hydroelectricity project, following which the town was largely abandoned. Previously, the Kolyma region was the site of some of the most notorious work camps in the Gulag, the vast penal system established during the Stalinist era.
