Ponds and peaks

Amursky and Protyazhnost are located nearby coastline is 30 kilometers from south to north and 10 kilometers from east to west. The Golden Horn is a bay that serves as a barrier that divides Vladivostok into two parts.

The capital of the Primorsky Territory has a series of small rivers and streams. There are also reservoirs. The highest point can be called the Blue Hill, whose height is 474 meters, it is located on the Muravyov-Amursky Peninsula. Also worthy of attention are the Eagle's Nest and Russian Mountain.

During cold weather it is dry here and the sun is often clear. In spring, warmth is slow to arrive. The weather can change rapidly. In summer it is observed high level humidity.

During the year, the most precipitation falls at this time. Autumn is passing quickly. In August the heat is at its strongest - an average of about 19-20 degrees. In January, the temperature drops to minus 12. It is best to come to the beach in July and end in September. The maximum water temperature in the sea is approximately 25°C.

Emergence

The capital of Primorsky Krai is a territory with rich history. At one time, power here was exercised by the rulers of the Bohan Empire. This happened in the period from 698 to 926. In the tenth century, the Khitans settled here, and then a state called Eastern Xia.

In 1233 there was an attack by the Mongol horde, due to which the land was devastated. What followed was a series of territorial disputes and claims to this land, but the next written mention dates back only to the 19th century.

1858 was the moment when the Aigun Treaty was signed between China and Russia. As part of its terms, the two states jointly used the site where Primorsky Krai is now located. The capital was founded here in 1860. This year, the Beijing Treaty was signed, according to which the Russian Federation completely assumed control.

Progress

Further development occurred. In 1890, the culture of the region was already concentrated here. After the October Revolution occurred, power changed here many times. Interventionists from many countries landed in the Primorsky Territory. The capital in 1920 became one of the parts that were part of

In 1921 it was declared the center of the Amur region. Since 1922 it has been included in the RSFSR. In 1958 the city was closed due to its location Pacific base. In 1960, Khrushchev came here, which became the impetus for the start of large-scale construction work. Then a funicular and many other important objects were built.

In 1991, like the entire Soviet Union, the Primorsky Territory underwent changes. The capital of the region has become open again, foreigners have the opportunity free access to her territory. A negative feature of this time is the decline in living standards and the collapse of the economy, which was characteristic, in essence, of the entire USSR at that time. Now the material and social aspects are getting better. This point is given importance as a major transport hub, trade and industrial center. Rapid development and growth is also expected in the future.

Curious places

Among the attractions here, it is extremely interesting to look at the Vladivostok Fortress, which is considered the most important landmark of the city. There is a picturesque forest park area and a beautiful coastline around.

Taking advantage of the protection of this architectural structure, in the past Russia carried out settlement and colonization that took place in the Ussuri region. total area fortifications - 400 square meters. There is a museum. This historical monument is given great importance.

No less interesting is a visit to the Catholic Church, which was built in 1921. Until 1935, services were held here. Nowadays, a restoration project is being carried out, funds for which were collected from donations from Catholics and those wishing to help preserve the unique building.

The complex was put into operation in 1991. The area of ​​the halls is about 1.3 thousand square kilometers. There are dioramas here, corals extracted from depths of the sea, sponges and shells, fish and sea animals. After exploring the animal world, you can switch to the human contribution to the development of water spaces. The opportunity to do this appears when meeting the ship “Red Vympel”, which became the first Far Eastern ship of the USSR.

He had the opportunity to participate in fierce battles and the removal of mines in the Sea of ​​​​Japan. Now the time has come for him to rest.

Vladivostok, the capital of Primorye, is the most Big City Russian Far East and one of the largest ports on the Pacific coast. Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen once compared it to Naples, and Nikita Khrushchev, returning from a tour of the United States, promised to turn the city into “our Soviet San Francisco.”

Zolotoy Rog Bay is the city center. In the 19th century, on its banks, the Governor General Eastern Siberia Nikolai Nikolaevich Muravyov-Amursky ordered the founding of a military post and gave it a name - Vladivostok. For a long time, the bay cut the city into two poorly connected parts, but in 2012, for the summit of the Asia-Pacific Economic Community, the two shores were connected by a magnificent cable-stayed bridge, called Golden.

On holidays it is closed to cars - and walking The bridge provides the best opportunity to see the central part of Vladivostok from above. There are always several ships on duty in the bay itself Pacific Fleet, and in the summer they moor at the marine terminal ocean liners. Several unconnected embankments were built along the bay. The most popular among Vladivostok residents, Tsarevich Embankment, opened quite recently. Here you can rent a bicycle or roller skates and ride along the water sparkling in the sun.

In addition to motor transport, it is convenient to get to the bay by boat and ferry, but swimming in it, to put it mildly, is not recommended. The environment of the Golden Horn is in dire straits: garbage and oil products float on the surface of the water.

Vladivostok seems like a romantic city: hills, descents and ascents, terraced buildings, fiery sunsets, a night port, lighthouses, walking sailors and fog. The neighboring regions also have a large coastline, but cannot boast of dozens of islands nearby.

The largest is Russky Island, on which Soviet time there were several military camps, turned into the main brand of the APEC summit. For a long time, Russky Island remained the outskirts of Vladivostok - a sparsely populated area with several residential settlements and clusters of military bases. With the collapse of the Soviet Union, the military abandoned almost all units on the island, and city residents were able to appreciate the numerous cozy bays with warm water and access to the open sea. Everything changed after the APEC summit in 2012, which was significant for Primorye.

A grandiose cable-stayed bridge connected the mainland with the island, and a modern complex Far Eastern campus buildings federal university. Now you can get to Cape Tobizin or Filippovsky Bay, beloved by Vladivostok residents, in just half an hour. The administration of the city and region has big plans for Russky Island: the largest aquarium in Russia will open in the near future, and in the future the authorities plan to complete a ring highway around the island and build it up with sanatoriums and residential areas. However, the appearance of the bridge has already entailed side effects - just a couple of years after the opening of the bridge, environmentalists sounded the alarm: the once virgin clean beaches by the end of summer they are overflowing with garbage.

Off the coast of Russky, in Novik Bay, there is an amazing tiny island of Papenberg, its shape reminiscent of a whale. In fact, it is an “island within an island.” Its length is about 90 meters and its width is 50 meters. The uninhabited island is difficult to see on maps, but tourists, having seen it in person, dream of getting there. Papenberg has rocky and steep shores, as well as a pebble beach, and the island is mainly covered with dense deciduous forest, dominated by oaks and lindens, with the occasional birch tree.

Vladivostok, thanks to its natural topography, is famous for its numerous viewpoints. They are one of the unique features of the city. Of course, it’s difficult to walk uphill or downhill, but you can always enjoy the beauty that opens from above. The best way see the city from two different points at once - walk along the central street Svetlanskaya from the Square of Fighters for Soviet Power to the FEGTU stop and take the funicular up to Orlinaya Sopka. This panoramic platform– the oldest and most popular in the city. By bus from the top station of the funicular you can get to the Primorsky Opera and Ballet Theater, while at the same time admiring the views from the Golden Bridge. And near the theater there is a newly built second viewing platform, which opens up the city from an unexpected side. More viewing platforms in Vladivostok are equipped on Zmeinka, on the Shkota Peninsula.

At the very high point within the city limits - Mount Refrigerator, 258 meters high - does not go public transport, but in good weather from here you can see with your own eyes that Vladivostok is located on a peninsula and see the Ussuri and Amur bays at the same time. Unfortunately, the highest hill in the suburbs of Vladivostok - Mount Vargina 458 meters - is occupied by the military, and it is simply impossible to get to it. Unless you agree in advance.

Guidebooks often unfairly ignore the Vladivostok fortress. Meanwhile, the city has dozens of unique long-term fortifications built at the beginning of the 20th century. The fortress was built taking into account the experience of the Russian-Japanese War and was the most fortified of all defensive buildings of that period. They didn’t have time to complete it, but they still spent, according to some information, an eighth of the entire gold reserve of the Russian Empire. redoubts, coastal batteries and forts are scattered throughout Vladivostok - but now, alas, most of the fortress’s structures are abandoned or occupied by the military. Several forts have become a popular place of leisure for Primorye residents; they are attracted by the extensive network of catacombs up to 25 meters deep and the dizzying views that open from the walls of the fortress. Among the most popular is Fort No. 7 named after Tsarevich Alexei. Located just half an hour from the city center, it has been preserved much better than other buildings, and people can walk through its dungeons. inexpensive excursions. On the territory of the Bezymyannaya fortress battery there is a museum exhibition dedicated to the fortress.

It is worth visiting the Zarya Center for Contemporary Art. According to some connoisseurs, it can replace the Moscow Garage for those who cannot live without Tissue magazine, workshops and discussions on the topic of multidisciplinary new media. The gallery owners bought the loft space from the garment factory of the same name, and now it is an art residence for artists, a co-working space, a cafe, a bookstore and a meeting place for advanced youth. In the center you can attend a course by St. Petersburg graffiti artists, talk about video art with the Thai artist Saravuta Chutivongpeti, a new resident of Zarya, and say hello from Moscow friends to curator Maria Kramar, who teaches a course here on transgression in contemporary art.

Ussuriysk is called “the largest Chinese market Primorye". The city has a huge market for things from China, open even at night. But main symbol city ​​is a stone turtle installed in the city park. The figure on the pedestal dates back to the 13th century and belongs to the culture of the Jurchen state - a stone statue, presumably the tombstone of a Jurchen military leader, was excavated in the city in 1964 by archaeologists.

2 hours by express train (190 rubles)

or 2 hours by bus from the bus station (261 rubles)

The city itself is very green, but for real exotic plants, you should go to the lotus lake in the village of Oak Key. In summer it turns pink with flowers. And in the Komarov Nature Reserve, cedars, elms, black firs and ginseng grow. Far Eastern leopards, Ussuri tigers, black storks, forest cats, and mandarin ducks live there. On the territory of the reserve there is the only rehabilitation center in Siberia and the Far East for bear cubs that have lost their parents: they are looked after for a while, fed, and then released.

At the same time, Ussuriysk is the largest in Primorye transport node. From here you can go to all corners of the region - take a break from the hustle and bustle in the reserves of the Khasansky district, admire the lotuses of Lake Khanka, climb Mountain peaks Sikhote-Alin or spend the whole day on the beaches near Nakhodka. Every day from Ussuriysk there are regular buses to the nearest Chinese provinces of Heilongjiang and Jilin (Girin): the journey to the border trading Suifunhe will take about three hours, and if you wish, you can get to Harbin in half a day - central city all of northeastern China.

In Primorye there are two more completely different cities, which are definitely worth a visit: Nakhodka - in summer, and Arsenyev - in winter.

Nakhodka with the neighboring port of Vostochny is the main sea gate of the Russian Far East. In Soviet times, when Vladivostok was closed city, everyone arrived in the USSR through Nakhodka Foreign citizens, among whom was once the legendary David Bowie. Foreigners who came to the Union for the first time noted the amazing photogenicity and unearthly appearance of the fog-shrouded city. Nakhodka, stretching along the slopes of the hills of the Trudny Peninsula, still looks extremely picturesque - and from almost any point there is a stunning view of the port.

How to get there from Vladivostok

Express train – 4 hours, 375 rubles (regular train takes 5 hours).Regular bus – 4 hours,440 rubles. Private minibuses – from 3 hours and 500 rubles

However, the city itself is not of particular interest to tourists. A few Stalinist buildings, a few shopping centers- but only. Nakhodka is cut off from the sea by railway stations and port infrastructure. In hot weather, you want to run away as far as possible from the coal dust rising above the Vostochny port. Fortunately, there is where to go: the beaches in the suburbs of Nakhodka are famous throughout the Far East, and, unlike the Khasansky district, they are well equipped. The most popular are in the village with the “Crimean” name Livadia and in the Volchanets microdistrict.

The best is considered to be Triozerye Bay, which received its name because of the fresh lakes located on its coast. Getting to it from the center of Nakhodka is more than 40 kilometers along a not very good road, but it’s worth it. In addition to relaxing on the many kilometers of beaches in Triozerye, tourists can go diving, windsurfing or kiting. As in all of Primorye, the water here is warmest in August - at this time in the shallow waters of the bay it warms up to + 25°C.

Arsenyev is the center of ski tourism for the entire Primorye. The city is located at the very foot of the Obzornaya hill, which has several ski slopes. Recently, the population of Arsenyev itself, which is relatively large by the standards of the Far East, has decreased by one and a half times, but the city-forming enterprise - the Progress plant - has survived, and today it produces Ka-52 Alligator multi-purpose military helicopters. Locals have long been accustomed to the “pinwheels” circling over the city, and for tourists every weekend, specialists from the local airfield conduct parachute jumps - a test jump from a height of 800 meters will cost only 2,500 rubles.

Also in the vicinity of Arsenyev there are many natural monuments– caves and waterfalls, as well as a lotus lake, which appeared several years ago through the efforts of naturalists.

In the Primorsky Territory there are several uninhabited protected islands, the most famous are Askold, Petrova and Furugelma. Sika deer were previously raised on Askold, and Petrov Island is famous for its yew grove - there are only a few of these left in the world.

How to get there from Vladivostok

and 16 kmby boat to the island

The most interesting island is Furugelma. It is called the “last Russian island”: after all, it is located south of all the islands of the Russian Federation. In Soviet times there was a military garrison and an artillery battery here - and now it is home to tens of thousands of seagulls. Ecologists say that there is no such diversity of birds as on Furugelm even in the Volga delta. Getting here is not easy - this is a protected area and you can only land on the island with an organized excursion.

At the height of the season, dump trucks bring tourists from the village to the foot of the mountain several times a day; smaller vehicles may not be able to get through. Livadia is surrounded mystical stories about ghosts and special energy at the top. Scientific fact - on the mountain there are dozens of megalithic blocks left over from ancient civilization.
