City tour in Pavlodar city, North East Kazakhstan region


Pavlodar is a large city in Kazakhstan. It is located in the north of the country on the Irtysh River, in the southern foothills of the West Siberian Lowland, near the border with Russia, about 400 km northeast of the capital Nur-Sultan. The city was named Pavlodar (which means Paul's gift) in honor of the newborn Grand Duke Pavel Alexandrovich.

Pavlodar, when it was an outpost of the Cossack garrison, Koryakovsky (Koryakovsky) was founded on the territory of the present city in 1720. It served to protect Russian commercial and expeditionary travelers

Since the mid-1960s, Pavlodar has grown significantly and turned into a large industrial center with tractor plants, aluminum and chemical industries. In 1978, an oil refinery was opened. Since an important tank factory was located in Pavlodar, foreigners were prohibited from entering the city until 1992.
