#citystroll A city stroll through the center of Vladivostok offers a wonderful mix of rich history, unique architecture, and breathtaking seaside views. Start your walk at Svetlanskaya Street, the city's main avenue, where you'll encounter an array of 19th-century buildings, cafes, and shops. Head towards Central Square (Ploshchad Bortsov za Vlast Sovetov), which is the heart of the city, and a great place to take in some of Vladivostok's vibrant urban life. For a mix of history and intrigue, visit the Millionka District, once a bustling area filled with Chinese immigrants in the early 20th century, known for its winding alleys and hidden courtyards. Today, Millionka has transformed into a trendy spot with cafes and small shops while still holding onto its historical charm. End your walk at Arbat Vladivostok, a pedestrian street full of local shops, street performers, and a lively atmosphere, perfect for some shopping or grabbing a coffee to wrap up your exploration. ‼️Don’t miss to visit the Vladivostok Railway Station, a symbol of the Trans-Siberian Railway's eastern terminus.

After visiting Vladivostok, my friends strongly recommended leaving two days to check out this route🗺, it was really fulfilling! And it’s absolutely effortless and effortless🍻, very suitable for lazy people🥳. [Steam Locomotive]➡[Dry Port Railway Station]➡[Commanding Point]➡[Glass Beach]➡[Tobyzina Cape]➡[Tokanev Lighthouse] — 📍【Lukang Railway Station🪷】 The only dry port railway station in the world, it is the terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railway and the starting point of the Far East Railway, crossing 87 cities and 16 rivers. 📍【Commanding High Point🚠】 From the commanding heights, you can not only see the entire city of Vladivostok, but also overlook the seaport. Standing on the Eagle's Nest Mountain and looking down, you can not only see the panoramic view of the Golden Horn Bay, but also the landmark building of Vladivostok - the Golden Horn Cable-stayed Bridge, which spans the Golden Horn Bay. It is very spectacular. 📍【Glass Beach🌉】 On the beach, glass stones of various colors are colorful under the sunlight on the beach. 📍【Tobyzina Cape 🏖】 This is the end of Vladivostok, located on Russky Island, a great place for outdoor hiking. Here, you will always encounter fascinating scenery. 📍【Tokanev Lighthouse 🪨】 The lighthouse was built in 1910. It is made of stone. The lower part of the tower is octagonal and the upper part is cylindrical. The lighthouse is painted white and the lantern dome is painted red. Tokanev Lighthouse is a very famous lighthouse. Note: ❶When traveling, clothes should be light and multi-purpose. ❷Enable international roaming before departure to ensure that your mobile phone can be used abroad. ❸Public toilets charge a fee, usually 20-30 rubles. ❹The customs clearance speed is relatively slow. ❺The local use of cylindrical two-prong plug

🏰1. Lenin statue, train station, Victory Square, cathedral, and submarine museum are all together, you can see them all in one go. The real appearance of the Glass Beach is quite different from the filtered images online. 🔤2. The prevalence of English is very low, so be prepared with translation software or body language. 🕰️3. Overall, the pace of life in Vladivostok feels slow. There is a 2-hour time difference with China, but it is not very noticeable. Local shops and banks open at 8 AM, but there are usually very few people in the morning. Restaurants open around noon and can stay open until 1-2 AM, which is very normal. 🦀4. The king crabs in Vladivostok are very fat and fresh, costing 1250 rubles per jin, which is about 99 RMB, less than 100 RMB. It's cheap, so I recommend eating a lot. 🔫5. There are gun shops to visit locally. We went for live ammunition shooting, which was very exciting. There are also forests where you can hunt. 🥖6. Local desserts are very sweet. Their diet mainly consists of bread, milk, potatoes, vegetables, and pork. The food at white people's restaurants is not tasty, so be mentally prepared. 🚗7. We drove into the country, and the road conditions were very poor. There is no signal when passing through uninhabited areas. The city roads are not bumpy, but parking is difficult. 🚘8. Drivers here drive very fast but also follow traffic rules strictly. Cars will usually stop for pedestrians to cross the road. 💰9. The living standard of residents is not high. The average local salary is about 5000 RMB. They are not competitive and do not like to work overtime, regardless of the pay. 🍺10. The fighting nation loves to drink. During the day, you can see people carrying bottles and drinking on the street. 🛍️11. Svetlanskaya Street is the first street in Vladivostok and a must-visit for tourists and architecture enthusiasts. There are many shops, and the buildings on both sides of the street have a historical feel, with vintage buildings retaining traces of history. 🚂12. The easternmost station of the Trans-Siberian Railway. It feels like the railway was extended eastward mainly for this place. The railway and trains are very prominent in this port city. The platform has an old-fashioned style from the last century, semi-open. Some platforms are like museums with antique trains on display. Also, the train platforms in Vladivostok can be freely accessed without a ticket. 🚢13. There are huge ships docked on the sea.

#Overseas travel I always really wanted to travel to Europe But I couldn't ignore the time and cost issues So I left for Vladivostok, a nearby Eastern Europe! I didn't know it would be this long, but it only took about two and a half hours? It had a strong European feel ㅠㅠ It was so nice. The weather wasn't too cold And it's smaller than I thought, so 4-5 days is enough to see the famous spots! I think 2-3 days would be enough ^^

We had an excellent day excursion from our cruise in Vladivostok. Our guide Pauline did a great job. She was open and flexible. Her love of her city warts and all was obvious. She put as much as possible in our time while getting us back with time to spare. From a walk to a lighthouse, to the terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railway, to a long walk through the downtown, to an interesting lunch, to drives over both bridges, to scenic lookouts and a final submarine visit, we had a great day. If you go there. Lots of public transportation there to go. Such as trams, taxis, buses. I recommend taking the occasional bus there. Because it is affordable and impressive. You can enjoy a lot of Russian specialties there. And some typical souvenirs from there for you to buy. Like chocolate, wow, there are so many variations of chocolate there. I hope I can visit there. Vladivostok is a major Pacific port city in Russia overlooking Golden Horn Bay, near the borders with China and North Korea. It's known as a terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railway, which links the city to Moscow in a 7-day journey. In the city center is Central Square, where a towering memorial pays tribute to local soldiers who fought Japanese forces in the early 20th century. #passionpassport #vladivostok #gooutside #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #bucketlistreboot #staycation #urbanexplorer

Vladivostok is a city in the Russian Far East. It gets really cold in winter so I recommend to plan your trip to Vladivostok from May till September. ✈️ Getting There - Vladivostok is located near Japan, China and Korea so pretty much the only way to get there is by plane. Vladivostok has an airport express train that will take you straight to Vladivostok’s city center, another perk is that the train passes by great sceneries. 🎠 Attractions - My favorite place to visit in Vladivostok is the aquarium on the Russian island, it has a lot of interesting fish and animals in there and the area outside the aquarium is just wonderful, it is right by the seaside. Another great place to visit is the Tokarevski Lighthouse. When the tide is low, the shallow path appears which you can use to walk to the lighthouse. You can walk along the seaside and the riverside, rent a longboard or a bicycle 🚲 at Naberezhnaya Tsesarevicha. You can visit Vladivostok’s surf camp and learn surfing or just rent a standup paddle. You can visit Russian theater and absorb local culture. 🥞 Food & Restaurants - Russian food is amazing, there are a lot of great restaurants with good service. Don’t forget it is in the culture to tip the waiter 15-20% in Russia. Start with having Russian pancakes for breakfast, they are called Blini, they are often served with condensed milk or they are stuffed with cottage cheese, potatoes, meat, cabbage. The next dish to try is Sirniki, it’s some sort of pancakes made of cottage cheese often served with sour cream. There are a lot of dinner dishes in Russia, it would take me dozens of pages to name them all, just prepare your stomach to eat a lot in Russia because it’s just so good 😍😍😍 Enjoy your trip to Russia and don’t freeze if you decide to go in Winter ❄️ #russia #vladivostok #travel #vacation #citytour #travelling #holidays #food #city #citycenter #island #passionpassport

I ordered the Georgian dish Khachapuri, and the waiter asked me if I knew how to eat it! Pippi knows how, so she mixed the cheese and egg inside with her chopsticks and tore it with the bread, eating it slightly greasy but delicious! #RestaurantExploration

Go to Vladivostok to see the sea and walk to the end of the lighthouse. Vladivostok in the Far East is the natural non-freezing port at the southernmost tip of the Amur Peninsula in Russia. It is also the European style that we can most easily experience. It has another name, Vladivostok, which means a small fishing village by the sea in Manchu. The sea cucumbers that are surrounded by the sea on three sides, the most indispensable is the sea view, which is suitable for me to watch the heavy sea lovers. In addition to the beach, there are several special attractions. 1 [Tokanev Lighthouse] is one of the locations for the Golden Horse Awards film "July and Ansheng". The world's most lonely lighthouse is suitable for a person to visit, and is also suitable to arrive with the person who saved you from loneliness. 2 Cape is located on the Grand Russian Island, a certain distance from the city, but the scenery is beautiful, it is the corner of Russia, where you can go hiking and hang gliding Umbrellas can be dived or blown up. It is a natural attraction that is very small. Cliffs, rocky beaches, ancient lighthouses, few foreign tourists will come here, and an hour of hiking is worth it.

Vladivostok Railway Station is located in the heart of the most prosperous downtown area of Vladivostok, adjacent to the harbour. From the flyover in front of the harbour, you can go directly to the dark locomotive model. This part is not a real platform, but a place that is opened for visitors to visit. There is a yea-type 3306 steam locomotive, a physical monument built to commemorate the heroic railway workers of World War II. The monument in front of the locomotive was dedicated to the heroic Far East Railway workers during the Great Patriotic War from 1941 to 1945. Many railway workers have died in the air strikes of the war. Opposite the locomotive there is a unique sculpture, his top is decorated with the Russian national emblem - double-headed eagle, with the number 9288 in the middle. Needless to say, you must know that this is the starting point of the famous eastern railway that runs through Russia, and the 9288-kilometer side is the capital of Russia, Moscow. More than 100 meters next to is the real train station. It is the most Russian architectural style of the land of Vladivostok, which is reminiscent of the representative works of Russian architectural art in the 17th century. The Vladivostok train station is in sync with the construction of the Russian Far East Railway. The railway station building has undergone several renovations. The Russian railway station building was now built in 1912 according to the plan of the Fonovarov. The appearance is exquisite and simple, full of aristocratic atmosphere. The main entrance is in the form of a triple arch, and the inside is a skate-shaped roof. There are some beautiful paintings on the ceiling and walls in the train station.

Vladivostok, a city whose name is filled with mystery. Located in the Russian Far East, it is an important port on the Pacific coast and a place rich in history and culture. My journey to Vladivostok was not just a geographical exploration, but a deep dive into Russian culture to experience its unique charm. The moment I arrived in Vladivostok, I was greeted by the salty sea breeze and the slightly chilly air. This city, nestled between mountains and the sea, boasts beautiful scenery. The distant mountains are faintly visible through the mist, while the nearby sea sparkles under the sunlight, with seagulls soaring freely in the sky. Unlike the bustling Moscow or St. Petersburg, Vladivostok is more like a quiet and reserved lady, silently telling her story. My adventure in Vladivostok began at Golden Horn Bay. This beautiful bay is the soul of Vladivostok. The blue sea water is crystal clear, with yachts freely cruising on the surface. The sea breeze gently brushes my face, bringing a refreshing feeling. I strolled along the bay, admiring the beautiful scenery and feeling the unique charm of this city. Golden Horn Bay is not just a scenic spot but also a witness to Vladivostok's history, marking its transformation from a small fishing village to a bustling port. Next, I visited the Vladivostok Fortress. This fortress is an important military defense structure in the Russian Far East, witnessing many significant moments in Russian history. Inside the fortress, the ancient cannons, sturdy walls, and historical buildings evoke the city's past glory and vicissitudes. Standing on the fortress, overlooking the distant sea and feeling the sea breeze, it seemed as if I could hear the whispers of history. Then, I walked into Vladivostok Central Square. This is the heart of Vladivostok and the most vibrant part of the city. The square is bustling with people, full of life and energy. I sat on a bench in the square, watching people's lives and feeling the pulse of the city. The atmosphere here combines the prosperity of a modern metropolis with the unique charm of the Far East. Of course, the museums in Vladivostok are not to be missed. These museums house a large number of historical artifacts and artworks, showcasing the history and culture of Vladivostok. In the museums, I learned about the development of Vladivostok and felt the city's deep cultural heritage. In Vladivostok, I tasted authentic Russian cuisine. From classic Russian bread to delicious caviar, every dish left a lasting impression. At the dining table, I interacted with the locals, learning about their culture and life, and feeling the warmth and hospitality of Vladivostok. The people of Vladivostok are simple and kind, living a slow and leisurely pace of life, enjoying every moment. I also visited many other attractions, such as Eagle's Nest Hill, lighthouses, and some ancient churches. The view from Eagle's Nest Hill is breathtaking, offering a panoramic view of Vladivostok. The lighthouses silently guard the city's safety, while the ancient churches tell the city's history and faith. In the evening, I would go to the seaside to watch the sunset, feeling the romance and tranquility of Vladivostok. The afterglow of the sunset reflects on the sea, sparkling, with the sea breeze gently brushing my face, bringing a refreshing feeling. At that moment, I felt like I was in a dreamlike world. The night in Vladivostok has its own charm. As night falls, the city lights up, making it even more beautiful. I strolled through the streets of Vladivostok, admiring the night view and feeling the city's charm and mystery. Every day in Vladivostok was filled with surprises and emotions. This city is not just a geographical frontier but an important part of Russian culture. With its unique charm, it attracts tourists from all over the world. It is not just a city but a culture, a spirit. Leaving Vladivostok, my heart was filled with reluctance. This city, like a charming lady, deeply attracted me. I will always remember every moment in Vladivostok, the emotions and joy it brought me. Vladivostok, goodbye! I look forward to meeting you again and feeling your charm once more. This journey to Vladivostok made me deeply realize that the charm of a city lies not only in its scenery but also in its humanity, history, and unique cultural heritage. And Vladivostok perfectly integrates these elements, forming a unique charm that deeply attracts me.
