Evenkiysky District, Administrative district in Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia.
Evenkiysky District covers a vast expanse of central Russia, characterized by taiga forests, rivers, and lakes that define its landscape. Tura serves as the administrative center and main hub for connections to surrounding areas.
The district took its current form through administrative reorganization in 2006, consolidating multiple separate administrative units into one. This restructuring followed changes to the governance system that had previously defined the territory differently.
The district is home to several ethnic groups whose ways of life shape the character of the region, with reindeer herding practices remaining visible in certain areas. These traditions connect people to the land and influence how communities organize themselves.
The territory has limited infrastructure, so travel requires careful planning with Tura as the main starting point. Visitors should expect long distances and basic transportation connections throughout the region.
The southeastern shore of Lake Vivi within the district marks the geographical center point of the entire Russian Federation. This geographic distinction makes the area noteworthy for those interested in the physical heart of such a vast country.
