Horishni Plavni, Industrial city in Poltava Oblast, Ukraine.

Horishni Plavni is a city in Poltava Oblast, Ukraine, positioned along the western shore of the Dnieper River. Residential neighborhoods line the riverside while two large open pit mines operate further inland, creating a distinct contrast in the urban layout.

The settlement was founded in 1960 under the name Komsomolsk to house workers for a newly established mining operation. After decades of growth, the city received its current name in 2016.

The city maintains strong connections to its mining heritage, with approximately 80 percent of residents working in the iron ore extraction industry.

Buses connect the city with nearby Kremenchuk and other regional centers, allowing visitors to move around without a private vehicle. The flat terrain along the river makes navigation through the urban area relatively straightforward.

The city ranks among Ukraine's top municipalities for quality of life indicators due to the economic strength of its mining operations.
