Geographical position

Russky Island is located in the Gulf of Peter the Great in the Sea of Japan, south of Vladivostok (the shortest distance between the continental part of the city and the island is 800 meters). From the Muravyov-Amursky peninsula, where the main part of Vladivostok is located, Russian is separated by the Bosporus Vostochny Strait. From the west, the island is washed by the waters of the Amur Bay, and from the south and east by the Ussuriysky. In the southwest, the Stark Strait is separated from the next island of the archipelago - Popov Island.

The territory of the island is 97.6 km², the length is about 18 km, the width is about 13 km. Population - 4703 inhabitants (2010). After the construction of the FEFU campus, the population of the island has increased significantly - more than 10 thousand people live on the campus.

Several bays protrude into the shores of the island, the largest of which is Novik Bay. Stretching out in a long narrow sleeve from the northwest to the southeast for more than 12 km, it remains its main internal transport artery. This bay divides the island into two unequal parts:

southwestern (larger)
northeastern (narrower), bearing the name of the peninsula Saperny.

Nature

The relief is mountainous, characteristic of the south of Primorye. There are 47 peaks of various heights on the island, called fells. The largest of them are located in the central part of the island: Russian (291.2 m), Main (279.8 m) and Central (254.9 m).

Coastline heavily incised. Its length is 123 km. Far into the interior of the island, Novik and Voevoda bays, Rynda Bay protrude. All of them are located on the western coast of the island and belong to the water area of the Amur Bay. On the north and south coast there are also many bays, but they are more open. The east coast faces the open sea and is the least indented. Abrasion (rocky, steep) coasts are widespread on the island. Steep coastal slopes with narrow beaches along them are found everywhere, even in bays deeply protruding into the land. Low-lying sloping shores can be found only at the tops of bays and bays. Near the Russian coast there are a number of small uninhabited islands and islets. Dams have been built to some of them, and the island of Helena, on the contrary, is cut off from the Russian channel.

There are 17 streams on the island with a length of more than 1 km, 7 streams with a length of more than 2 km and one river - Russkaya (Voevodikha), with a length of more than 5 km. There are fresh water lakes on the island, some of them are the result of economic activity man: the technical lake of the Voroshilov battery, small reservoirs in Trud Bay and at the Foot, former quarries of a brick factory on the Babkin Peninsula and sand production near Ostrovnaya Bay. Most large lakes of natural origin - Gluzdovsky (Akhlestyshev) with an area of 5 hectares and Izvestkovoe (popularly "Parisovskoe" - by the name of the nearby bay). Wetlands are found in the lower reaches of the Russkaya River, as well as in the mouth parts of some streams.

The microclimate of the northwest side differs from the southeast, facing open sea. During the summer monsoon, the southeast, windward side of the island is often covered with fog, it drizzles thicker and is somewhat colder than on the northwestern side. The water in the Novik, Rynda and Voevoda bays warms up faster than in the open part of the Ussuri Bay, which washes the east of the island. IN winter time the first ice first appears at the top of Novik Bay (beginning of December), then in Voevoda and Rynda. The winds of the Asian anticyclone drive ice to the northwestern coast of the Muravyov-Amursky Peninsula and the Empress Eugenia Archipelago, along which fast ice is formed. During the period of its greatest distribution along the coast of the Russian Island, it stretches from locality Pospelovo to Stark Strait. In addition, thin ice forms north of about. Engelm and Lavrov and in Novy Dzhigit Bay. The shores of the island are completely free of ice by the end of March - mid-April.

Currently, black fir and Korean cedar are found only in cultivation, while most of the island is covered with dense broad-leaved forest. The stand is dominated by oak, but other species are also widespread: linden (3 species), maple (6th century), ash (3rd century), Sarzhent (Sakhalin) and Maksimovich cherries, hornbeam, heart-leaved. Representatives of the southern flora are often found: Amur velvet, Manchurian walnut, calopanax, seven-lobed, Japanese alder, etc. Grow in the undergrowth: mock orange, thin-leaved, early weigela, rhododendron, Korean abelia, honeysuckle, hazel, euonymus, rose hips, hawthorn, etc. Discovered many types of vines. Among them: actinidia of 3 species, grapes, lemongrass, whip-shaped and round-leaved wood pliers, Dioscorea nipponskaya ...

Story

Furugelm, recognized the Russian Island, along with other areas, as the most suitable for organizing agriculture. Despite this, Russian was not included in the number of lands of the specific department in 1867.

The development of the coastal defense of the island and the deployment of troops here led to the fact that the number of civilians began to increase on it. Some of them took up gardening, providing vegetables not only to the island, but also to Vladivostok. Others have become involved in serving the needs of the military. At this time, the number of civilians on the island reached 236 people, and by 1895 it had increased to 3 thousand. Additional activities local residents began providing Vladivostok residents with firewood, and the breeder M. Fedorov rented a propeller boat "Druzhok" and organized regular flights to the city.

In the same year, Grand Duke Sergei Mikhailovich Romanov, who was in Russian, called the Vladivostok fortress the most prepared, and one of the batteries was named Grand Duke. In -1914, the hero of the Japanese war, General Kornilov, served on Russian Island, while in exile. The disciplinary battalion famous throughout the country was also located here.

Shkota Island is located south of Russky Island, connected to it by a dam. Surveyed and named in 1865-66 by M.A. Klykov by the name of the senior officer of the corvette "America", lieutenant commander N.Ya. sheet.

Shkota Island is separated from Russky Island by a washed-out spit, with a water depth of up to one meter. In Soviet times, a military garrison was based on the island, the scythe was constantly poured, but now about 15 years have passed since the last military left Shkota (then still a peninsula). Nature had enough time to return everything to its place - the Shkota peninsula again became an island. True, as it turned out, only in the summer - in the winter with the "mainland" - Russky Island - Shkota is connected by a pebble-ice bridge. At the top, the remains of the positions of the coastal battery are clearly visible - one of the many, designed to protect the approaches to Vladivostok in the recent past.
