Observation Deck, Vladivostok, Primorsky Krai, Russia
Primorsky Krai is a unique territory famous for its fascinating nature, spectacular views, long history, and the enormous Sea of Japan. Owing to its remoteness from the European part of Russia, many Russians reject it in favor of traveling somewhere abroad.
If only they knew what a wonderful experience they’re missing, and what a chance they’re blowing. Primorsky Krai is one of a kind. It unites centuries-long history, multinational culture, beautiful preserved nature and a strong resilient character of its locals that has been influenced by the sea, which is not so very surprising, taking into account the fact that the region forms the border with China and Korea to the west and southwest, while its southern side is flanked by the Sea of Japan. It’s the sea that dictates the rules of the game here and defines the climate and the weather of the region. Every year the lowlands are exposed to floods due to cyclones, spring thaws and heavy continuous rains.
