Khabarovsk, the shining metropolis of the Russian Far East, is dramatically situated at the confluence of the huge Amur and Ussuri rivers, in close proximity to the Chinese border. Founded in 1858 as a military outpost, the city is named after the explorer Yerofey Khabarov and quickly developed into the most important administrative and transport nerve center of the region. The architectural image of the city is characterized by wide, elegant boulevards, historic brick buildings from the Tsarist era, and a beautifully landscaped, miles-long waterfront promenade along the Amur. As the most important junction of the Trans-Siberian Railway in the east and thanks to its bustling river port, Khabarovsk is a crucial link for trade and exchange in the Asia-Pacific region.
