Built as a coal mining city, the population peaked at around 15000 in the early 90s. Following perestroika, a hot water system failure and the closure of the mine, the city was rapidly abandoned in late 1994 and early 1995. The intervening 15 years have seen plunder, vandalism, and the gradual invasion of wilderness.
