Dzhankoi

Dzhankoi sits in the northern part of the Crimean peninsula and connects several railway lines. The town spreads across flat terrain and serves as a junction for travelers moving between different regions.

The settlement emerged in the mid-1800s as a small stop along a newly built railway line. Over the following decades the place grew and later received official town status.

The name Dzhankoi derives from Crimean Tatar language, meaning 'new village', reflecting the multicultural heritage of this region through its etymology.

Travelers often change here between trains heading to different parts of the peninsula. The stations sit close to each other and are reachable on foot, making transfers straightforward without much effort.

Alongside the railway facilities there are smaller plants that process food and distribute it regionally. These workshops and factories shape the economic life and offer insight into local production.
