Lukhovitsky District

Lukhovitsky District is a municipal area in southeastern Moscow Oblast spanning roughly 1340 square kilometers. It contains one town, one work settlement, and about ninety rural communities where residents engage in both urban services and agricultural activities.

The district was formed as an administrative division within Moscow Oblast during the establishment of municipal structures in the region. Lukhovitsy emerged as the main administrative center serving the wider territory.

The settlements here maintain local ways of life rooted in agriculture and community bonds that connect residents to the land. Visitors can see how people in smaller villages preserve their everyday customs and relationships with nature.

Spring through autumn offers the best conditions for visiting, as the rural areas become fully accessible and green. The area is spread out across farmland and villages, so having your own transportation helps you see the different parts comfortably.

The district straddles the border between suburban development and open farmland, creating a patchwork of settlements and fields. This in-between character means visitors can experience both built-up areas and agricultural land within short distances of each other.
