City Description
CloseSakhalinsk, where the history of KOreans still remains
Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk is a city that leaves a cozy impression, characterized by Russian traits rather than European vibes.
An interesting fact is that the blonde, fair-skinned, blue-eyed Russians coexist with minority groups including KOreans who were forcefully drafted during Japanese rule and their descendants who made this place their home. The KOrean culture planted by these KOreans shows our faint history.
Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk has a population of 150,000, smaller than that of KOrea’s small-sized cities. The city is not crowded and tranquil, and if you go to the outskirts you can feel and experience the beauty of nature.
Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk is covered in snow for half a year. You can see snow-free scenery from May to October. If you want to enjoy winter sports, stop by to ski, skate, or ice fish. You can also go salmon fishing or seafood collecting in the summer.

CloseSuggested Itinerary
Close- Gagarin Park This park, full of natural beauty, was built from a forest and filled with park rides, outdoor cafes, and a walking trail.

Tunaicha Lake, Sea of Okhotsk
