Krasnodar

The Kuban River defines the setting of Krasnodar — flowing along the city’s southern side, it has long connected this regional capital with the agricultural plains of southern Russia. Founded in 1793 as Yekaterinodar for the Black Sea Cossacks, the settlement grew into an important administrative and commercial centre; it received its present name in 1920. Central Krasnodar combines broad boulevards and late-imperial buildings with newer public spaces. The 2016 Krasnodar Stadium and its adjoining park have become prominent additions to the city’s urban fabric.
