Welcome to Khabarovsk!
Khabarovsk stretches along the bank of Amur River for 50 kilometers. The largest
economic, financial and transportation center of the Russian Far East with population
exceeding 800 thousand, Khabarovsk constantly updates and refreshes its appearance.
Its location at the intersection of land, water and air communications makes Khabarovsk
a major traffic center, and immediate proximity of the state border enables dynamic
development of economic, trade, educational and cultural relations.
Khabarovsk is separated from Moscow only by an 8-hour flight by a modern airliner.
There are regular flights to Niigata, Aomori (Japan), Seoul (S. Korea), Guangzhou, Harbin
(China), San-Francisco (USA), Tel-Aviv (Israel), Tashkent (Uzbekistan). In summertime, one
can reach the neighboring Republic of China onboard a fast boat of Amur River Shipping
Company, river-marine cargo boats and passenger ships cruise to seaports of the countries
of South-East Asia. The friendly Khabarovsk has sister-cities in other countries: Niigata
in Japan, Portland in the USA, Victoria in Canada, Harbin in the Republic of China.
A city of developing culture, with museums, parks, art galleries, unique relics and
publications of the Far-Eastern State Research Library, it always offers recreation
opportunities. Amur and its side streams conceal a number of attractions for fishing fans.
Not far from the city, there is 'Great Hekhzir' Nature Reserve, offering its paths to
hiking-lovers. Amur river boat rides, "Russian Folk Parties", performances of
Russian national and folk groups are especially popular among our city's guests.
We hope that our city becomes a true friend of yours, lets you experience the most
unforgettable moments and the joy of social communication. Welcome to KHABAROVSK a city
