Journey to Vorkuta - The Most Depressing Town in Russia

  • In 2020, I visited the town of Vorkuta and some of the nearby urban localities for the first time. I was able to witness absolutely surreal views of the Russian Arctic in form of neglected settlements with dozens of abandoned buildings in the middle of tundra. I decided to create a video in form of a short documentary about this incredible area. Enjoy!

    Wow, thank you for this video.
    My great grandfather, born in the US in 1903 immigrated to Lithuania somewhere in 1930s and started a business. In 1945 the Soviets saw in his birth certificate the he was an American citizen and on top of that a business owner and a large property owner. Since you cannot have individual success under communism, they sent him to Vorkuta to work in a coal mine. He came back in 1955 ill and weak, after about two years died of lung cancer.

      Yet Russia seems to have forgotten many parts of history... Invading Ukraine and emberassing themselves how weak their army actually is.
      I always thought Russia had a great army untill now, all their power relies on the weak excuse of nuclear bombs... Without nukes Russia would be nothing.

    Thanks for the well put together video. It's amazing how huge of an impact coal production was in the not so distant past, and how entire towns and cities that were built around coal went from prosperous to desolate in a relatively short period of time. Same has happened here in the US, and i'm sure other places throughout the world.

      @ Randy Neil,
      Those apartment complexes are heated by huge central-heating steam plants. You would
      have to live in one of those apartment blocks with neighbors to have heat, electricity and
      water. Unless, you were able to find a way to heat your home; you would not be able to
      survive the Russian winter in Vorkuta, that lasts nine months of the year.

    I just found this channel last night and I find it very interesting. Not a lot of people get to see this part of Russia and it makes me wonder to myself how people can survive living this far north. These towns are in very remote regions of the country and they're very far away from major cities. It must have been very difficult to get food and supplies to this region where the only reliable transportation to this region is by rail. Personally, I really don't think I'd want to live in a place where it's very cold year round. I'm more used to places where the temperatures stay above freezing.

    I am curious about how the buildings were built on top of the permafrost and if any of them have
    subsided with the climate change in the Arctic (From the looks of your Vorkuta winter video; one
    would be hard-pressed to believe that global warming is a reality!)
    I noticed that one of the buildings has been transitioned into a church. Is it Russian Orthodox church?

      Yes! ‘Artisan’ coal briquettes, in a tiny wicker picnic style basket 😂

      Market it as Green Arctic Coal with some baloney like how it’s around 23% better for the environment than regular coal

    The most depressing town in my life was Detroit,
    Property vales were so low the city gave them
    to anyone who joined public sector services.
    I purchased a former brewery for a vacation
    house. For summer visits. Traded it for land
    beside the Arkansas River. Because the Detroit
    River water was too cold for swimming.

      Still winter in Detroit is nowhere near as severe as in Vorkuta.

    Not depressing for me. Having seen the mess from the ground floor upward
    I'd go downstairs to see the building engineering plant, tool storage, etc.
    Work-related spaces discourage visiting rogues seeking to despoil families.

    Depressing, or a light at the end, for the many that have no other place to exist in this wild world, all perspective.
