Listvyanka

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Listvyanka (Russian: Листвя́нка) is an urban-type settlement in Irkutsk Oblast, Russia, situated seventy kilometres from Irkutsk, near the point where the Angara River leaves Lake Baikal. Listvyanka is accessible by bus or ferry from Irkutsk. Its population is 1,745 (2002 Census).

Despite its modest size Listvyanka is one of the busiest tourist spots in the whole of Siberia. Due to its proximity to Irkutsk, it sees probably more visitors than all other towns and villages on Lake Baikal combined - particularly weekending Irkutians and foreign tourists (Russian travellers prefer wilder spots) and is relatively overdeveloped, with a tourist-oriented market, picknick areas and a plethora of hotels and cafes.
