💫Krasnoyarsk Region: Russia in Miniature 🌍Some regions impress by their sheer scale. Krasnoyarsk Krai is one of them. 🗺️Stretching for almost 3,000 kilometres from south to north, from the mountains of Southern Siberia to the Arctic, the region brings together several completely different natural worlds: taiga forests, mountain ranges, canyons, tundra, mighty rivers and seemingly endless woodland. 🏞️One of the region’s main natural symbols is the Yenisei, one of the world’s great rivers. It crosses Krasnoyarsk Krai from south to north and plays a major role in shaping its landscape. ✅Among the region’s most remarkable places are: 🔹 Ergaki Nature Park, known for its mountain lakes and dramatic rock formations 🔹 Krasnoyarsk Stolby National Park, famous for its striking syenite cliffs 🔹 the majestic Putorana Plateau, a remote land of lakes, waterfalls and mountains 🔹 the Sayano-Shushensky Nature Reserve, home to rare wildlife including the snow leopard and Siberian ibex 🔹the Tunguska Nature Reserve, associated with the mystery of the Tunguska event 🔹 the Great Arctic Nature Reserve, one of the largest protected natural areas in the world 🔹 the picturesque Mana River Bend, where the river makes a spectacular curve through the Siberian taiga Around 70% of the region is covered by forests, while its extraordinary variety of landscapes has earned Krasnoyarsk Krai the description “Russia in miniature.” And this is only the beginning of our journey. 📍Every Sunday, we will discover a new region of Russia through its nature, history, remarkable places and fascinating facts.
