Trefoil

Zoom more 

The entire Red Forest is a leaky radioactive waste dump, created when the fallout-coated trees were bulldozed on the spot. The small sign next to the trefoil reads: “PTLRW: Red Forest”, which translates as “Point for the Temporary Location of Radioactive Waste: Red Forest”. (Photo courtesy of Henri Dekerf.)
