Khabarovsk Krai

A large krai in the Russian Far East, whose capital, Khabarovsk, lies on the Amur River and combines city life with the wild forests of the Sikhote-Alin.

Khabarovsk Krai lies in the Russian Far East, bordering the Sea of Okhotsk and the Strait of Tartary to the east, with the Amur River flowing through the south. The capital, Khabarovsk, is built along the river and has a riverside park, the Far Eastern Art Museum and a regional museum, facing the Chinese town of Fuyuan across the river. The forests of the Sikhote-Alin range in the krai are among the habitats of the Siberian tiger. Summer and early autumn are better for travel, and winters are bitterly cold. Khabarovsk has an international airport and lies on the Trans-Siberian Railway.
