Nakhodka, Port city in Primorsky Krai, Russia

The city extends across the Trudny Peninsula into Nakhodka Bay, featuring large industrial ports and terminals along the Sea of Japan coast.

The settlement received its name in 1859 when the Russian corvette Amerika discovered the bay as a natural shelter during maritime exploration.

The city incorporates Russian, Korean, and indigenous customs in local festivals, reflecting the diverse population of the Russian Far East region.

Nakhodka operates regular cargo shipping routes to Asian destinations through multiple deep-water terminals that handle timber, coal, and container freight.

The port functions as the eastern terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railway, connecting maritime routes from Japan with the Russian rail network.
