Vladivostok
Some Russian, Some Others

Vladivostok is quite mixed city. You can see Japanese, Korean and Chinese people everywhere. Besides, the first thing you will notice is (if you are not from UK) all the cars are right handed. Majority of the cars are Japanese, mainly Toyota or Honda. Vladivostok is the import spot of Japanese cars to Russia.

Warships at Vladivostok

Vladivostok is the base of Russian Navy for Pacific. The city was closed to foreigners until early 90s but now you can go and shoot a photo of the warships.

Vladisvostok is the final destination of Trans Siberian Railway. If you take a train from Moscow to Vladivostok, it would last more than 6 days to get here. The distance is 9288km. I am next to the small monument showing the distance from Moscow. Yes, I did it!!
