Komsomolsk-on-Amur is the industrial capital of the Khabarovsk Territory. The Aviation Plant (KNAAZ), known throughout Russia as the city-forming enterprise which produces military and civilian aircraft Sukhoi Superjet-100, is located in Komsomolsk. You will definitely have an opportunity to visit the expo center of this enterprise.
Almost all of Komsomolsk was built by prisoners. In Soviet times, the city served as the administrative office of concentration camps in the Far East. Majority of camps for prisoners from all over the Soviet Union and from abroad were located here. For those who are interested in this sad page in the history of Russia, our guides will be able to conduct a tour of the places associated with the Gulag past.
You can also choose to visit the nearby villages of Pivan with a program about the Russian Far East settlement and Verkhnyaya Ekon, a Nanai village that carefully preserves traditions and culture of Aboriginal people living along the Amur to this day.
BAM railroad starts from Komsomolsk. We can arrange a trip along the BAM railway, starting from Komsomolsk and up to Severobaikalsk with visits to many unique places along this route. |
