Bilibino, Administrative center in Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Russia

The town sits at the confluence of Karalveyem and Bolshoy Keperveyem Rivers, surrounded by tundra landscapes at 274 meters above sea level.

Following gold discoveries by geologist Yuri Bilibin, the settlement emerged in 1955 and received official town status in 1993.

The population combines Russian and Ukrainian residents with indigenous Chukchi and Even communities, maintaining traditional Arctic lifestyle patterns.

Transportation access remains limited to Keperveyem Airport connections, while goods arrive primarily through seasonal road deliveries.

The Bilibino Nuclear Power Plant operates as the northernmost nuclear facility worldwide, with three active reactors generating 12 megawatts each.
