Built in secrecy from <strong>1953<\/strong> up to <strong>1979<\/strong>,<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>his purpose was to provide a safe shelter for former president of Yugoslavia <strong>Josip Broz\u00a0Tito<\/strong> and <strong>350<\/strong> of his closest <strong>associates<\/strong>, in case of <strong>nuclear war<\/strong>. It was called\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>ARK D0<\/strong>, and the only persons knew about it were four <strong>commanders in chief<\/strong> and thoroughly selected construction workers, who had to sign <strong>Confidentiality Agreement<\/strong>.<\/span>\u00a0Building it have costed around <strong>4,5 billion $<\/strong>. It was the third largest investment ever in all of <strong>Yugoslavia<\/strong>. It could withstand nuclear strike 3 times more powerful than one in <strong>Hiroshima<\/strong>. This strategic object has 6.500 square meters and it is settled on 300 meters under the surface. Impressive, right? Imagine then how was it like to build it in secrecy!<\/p>\n<p>If you looked from the outside, you couldn&#8217;t notice anything <strong>unusual<\/strong>. Just three regular houses next to each other, surrounded with nature. Nothing would gave away that those houses kept the largest <strong>military object<\/strong> in secrecy for almost <strong>50 years<\/strong>. The bunker was the third most important military object in Yugoslavia. Other two were\u00a0<strong>underground airport<\/strong> and air base <strong>\u017deljava<\/strong> near city of <strong>Biha\u0107 <\/strong>and military <strong>harbor<\/strong> Lora in <strong>Split<\/strong>, Croatia. Building these three military objects have costed Yugoslavia over\u00a0<strong>18 billion $\u00a0<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Inside of a bunker<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The bunker reminds on <strong>labyrinth<\/strong> with more than one hundred rooms and 1.5 meters thick walls. It consists of various conference halls, residential space, numerous offices and &#8220;presidential block&#8221;. All rooms are well preserved with <strong>fully maintained inventory<\/strong> which can be really interesting for everyone visiting it. So, in this object you can see how would president of Yugoslavia and one of the most <strong>powerful<\/strong> man of that time would live in case of nuclear war. Besides being a safe place to survive nuclear war, this center was supposed to be a center of <strong>military operations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This object was designed to provide uninterrupted life for 350 people for <strong>six months<\/strong>. To demonstrate it to you, it is enough to mention that the bunker also had its own <strong>hospital<\/strong> with an operating room. But, it also had a big <strong>swimming pool<\/strong>, so besides the fact that you would be on safe, you could enjoy your time spent there! Bunker also had a <strong>cable TV, <\/strong>in time<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>when no other city in Yugoslavia had one! The living conditions were <strong>ideal,<\/strong> with temperature adjusted to 21-23 \u00b0C and air humidity to 60-70 %. Pretty impressive again, right?<\/p>\n<p>Even though the owner of this bunker is <strong>Ministry of Defense<\/strong>, it is firstly tourist attraction. Also, it is a host of <strong>artistic camp<\/strong> for artists from all over the world. In bunker you can find 50 works of modern art that have become the permanent setting of this facility.<\/p>\n<p><em>So you should definitely look on it from a positive side. If you decide to visit this nuclear bunker in time of nuclear war, you will (probably) survive it.
