Tomsk, University city in Western Siberia, Russia.
Tomsk extends along the eastern bank of the Tom River, with university campuses, wooden architecture districts, and modern residential areas across its territory.
The city emerged from a fortress constructed in 1604 under Tsar Boris Godunov's decree, establishing Russian influence in the Siberian region against nomadic tribes.
The six universities of Tomsk, including the first Siberian university founded in 1888, attract students from across Russia and international locations.
The local transportation network includes trolleybuses, buses, and a railway station connecting to the Trans-Siberian branch line for regional travel.
The city maintains hundreds of traditional wooden houses from the 19th century, featuring intricate wood carvings on window frames and roof edges.
