Activities, Excursions of Khabarovsk (Russia (Asia)).

Russia is (by far) the largest country in the world. Population density outside the few major cities (Moscow, St. Petersburg) is very low. Siberia is almost "empty". The best way to see the place is either by a) taking a really, really long vacation or b) taking the Trans-siberian Railway fro Vladivostok to Moscow covering 5 time zones and 11000 kilometers. The Asian part of Russia includes Siberia, Kamchatka and lake Baikal.

For practical (touristic) purposes we split up Russia in 2 parts: 1) Russia in Europe and 2) Russia in Asia.

Khabarovsk is the largest city and the administrative center of Khabarovsk Krai located 30 kilometers from the Chinese border about 800 kilometers (500 mi) north of Vladivostok.
