Kotelniki, Metropolitan town in Moscow Oblast, Russia
Kotelniki is a town southeast of Moscow in Moscow Oblast, situated in an area with an elevation of about 140 meters. It has grown from a rural village into an urban center with residential neighborhoods and shopping facilities.
The settlement was first recorded in documents during the 17th century, but it only received official town status in 2004. Rapid population growth in the decades before this recognition led to its formal designation as a city.
The town attracted many new residents drawn by improved transportation links and modern housing options. This transformation reshaped the character of the place and made it a vibrant part of the greater Moscow area.
The town is easily accessible by metro, as the Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya Line opened its eastern terminus here in 2015. This direct connection makes reaching Moscow quick and exploring the area straightforward.
The Orange Park residential complex near the metro station shows the modern construction projects that shape this place. Such developments reveal how the Moscow region expands outward and creates new living areas.
