Ussurijsk

Ussuriysk sits in the Razdolnaya River basin in Russia’s Primorsky Krai, where the broad Khanka Plain approaches the wooded foothills of the Sikhote-Alin. Founded in 1866 as the settlement of Nikolskoye, it grew into an important rail and road centre of the southern Russian Far East. Its role reflects a region shaped by Russian settlement, connections with northeast Asia and the older medieval cultures of Primorye. Ussuriysk provides an inland perspective on a krai often associated internationally with Vladivostok and the Pacific coast.
