Hi, I'm one of the editors of Atlas Obscura.

I'd like to see this lighthouse added to the list of locations in Atlas. Would you be interested in sharing this photo, or even maybe contributing a short description.

I read somewhere that this lighthouse has a leaky Russian nuclear power plant in it and is now unsafe to visit. Does anyone know if this is true?

To aa@bb.com: yes that's true, this ANIVA LIGHT HOUSE is an nuclear powered lighthouse and it's one of 132 nuclear powered lighthouses on Russian North coast! The view - yes true "amaizing", but I don't recomend to visit that type lighthouses, becouse of big radiation level inside and near! They are all lond time ago abandoned! \"In summer 2001 two people received radioactive doses after the attempt to dismantle the lighthouse near Kandalaksha in Murmansk region. They tried to extract the lead from the lighthouse in order to sell it later as scrap metal. They were not aware of the fact that there was a strong radiation source inside the lighthouse.
