Almetyevsk

Almetyevsk occupies the banks of the Zai River in southeastern Tatarstan. Once a small settlement, it expanded rapidly after the discovery of the nearby Romashkino oil field in 1948, and the energy industry still defines much of its identity: Tatneft is headquartered here. Almetyevsk is the administrative centre of Almetyevsky District and an important urban hub in Tatarstan’s oil-producing south-east. Its streets and public spaces belong to a republic where Tatar and Russian are both official languages. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Almetyevsk and Tatarstan.
