Chita, Administrative center in Zabaykalsky Krai, Russia
The city stands at the meeting point of the Chita and Ingoda Rivers, surrounded by the Yablonoi Mountains and the Chersky Range at 650 meters elevation.
Following the failed uprising of 1825, numerous Decembrists were sent to Chita, transforming the settlement into a center of intellectual and cultural development.
The regional drama theater, museums, and concert venues present performances that combine Russian traditions with Buryat cultural elements from the neighboring regions.
The Trans-Siberian Railway station connects Chita with major Russian cities, while Kadala Airport provides air transportation 15 kilometers from the city center.
The city maintains locomotive repair facilities that service trains traveling between Moscow and Vladivostok on the world's longest railway line.
