Vladivostok is the final destination of the 9,288 kilometers Trans-Siberian Railway route. The port city will welcome you with its renowned and impressive white-washed central rail station. Vladivostok is a military port, home to the Russian Pacific Fleet, located on the western shores of the Japanese Sea. Vladivostok is captivating, with its genuine mix of different cultures: the Russian language, Japanese cars, and Asian cuisine. Start your discovery of Vladivostok by overlooking this charming port city from its waterfront promenade: huge ships, containers with foreign goods, and the sea air create a romantic mood. To cover the whole city at a glance, ride on the funicular railway, and definitely go beyond the city to the untouched and remote parts of the Primorye region, including Khasan, Olginsky and Khanka districts, which offer an endless sea, fresh and unpolluted air and elegant nature.
