Slyudyanka, Railroad junction town at Lake Baikal, Russia.

Located at the southern tip of Lake Baikal, Slyudyanka extends along the shoreline with mountains framing its residential and commercial districts.

The settlement, established in 1899 near mica deposits, developed into a transportation hub with the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway through the region.

Local museums display mineral collections and artifacts that represent the mining heritage and geological significance of the Baikal region.

Travelers can reach Slyudyanka by taking regular trains from Irkutsk, with the journey lasting approximately two hours through the Siberian landscape.

The railway station building, constructed entirely from white marble blocks, stands as the only such structure on the Russian railway network.
