Active and friendly museum in one of the only Japanese buildings left in the city. The free outdoor park has interesting exhibits and is beautifully cultivated. The museum is well appointed for a small City and they have several rotating exhibits to match the seasons. They also hold events like tea times and photo contests, check out their website to see what is coming up

What a gem just couple of steps from my office in Yuzno Sahalinsk! It was 3rd of November and there was the special event that I, using my "perfect" Russian, deciphered as "night of art". Aside the special events that were happening there just that night, it is amazing how much different topics they fitted in relatively small place. History of island Sahalin from early ages to now, nature, culture, trade, people.. It would be shame to stay in Sahalin and not visit this place.

Ploshchad' Slavy

Mentioned on 
1 list 
Ploshchad' Slavy, or Glory Square, is a captivating destination steeped in history and natural beauty. Originally the site of Japan's Karafuto Shrine established in 1911, it was transformed into a war memorial after WWII. Today, visitors can enjoy a serene stroll along its pine tree-lined paths that evoke memories of the past. In summer, families flock here to appreciate the lush greenery and monuments scattered throughout the park.
Really nice to walk, learn some history and spend the afternoon

Worth a quick visit. Not was interesting to find out that the memorial is also for those Russian soldiers fallen in Afghanistan... and that Russia was invited to assist the Afghan government against the West... I am sure the Afghan government would not use the words invited to assist.

Gorny vozdukh

Ski resort
Outdoor Activities
Gorny Vozdukh, which means "mountain air" in Russian, is a popular alpine destination in the Russian Far East. It's known for its premier ski resort with trails for skiing and snowboarding. Visitors can take a cable car to the mountaintop where they can enjoy panoramic views of the city and valley below. The top also features a cafe serving Korean delicacies and tea, making it an ideal spot for photographs and relaxation.
One of my favorite destination for walking. There is excellent view of the city and the valley from the hilltop. You can enjoy skiing or simply take the lift to the top and enjoy the breathtaking view. Equipment rental is available on the spot.

We loved going up with the cablecar - it is beautiful from the top with a lovely view over the city - and nice spots for photographs. The weather was not very good, but we still loved the experience. At the top there is a very nice restaurant, where we ate a Korean delicacy and had tea - realy a lovely atmosphere. We again took the cable car down the mountain and loved watching so many people skiing and snowboarding! Would recommend this to every visitor of Sakhalin island.

Great ski resort very close to the center of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk town. However, English speaking services, just like in the rest of Russia, are lacking. There is a Russian cafe on the top station selling typical Russian snacks and drinks (no English menu or English-speaking staff).

Park
Nature & Parks
Gorodskoy Park Kul'tury I Otdykha Im. Yu. Gagarina is a delightful oasis in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, perfect for those seeking relaxation and recreation. This expansive park features scenic walking trails that wind through lush pine forests, alongside a picturesque lake where you can rent boats for a leisurely paddle. With various sports facilities available, visitors can engage in jogging, biking, or skateboarding on dedicated paths.
Fantastic place to take a walk, enjoy nature or engage in all sorts of sports activities. The park is quite large, with several tracks for walking, jogging, skateboarding, biking. There is an amusement park, small lake you can rent a boat, even a train is running around it. You can cross the fast running mountain creek through half a dozen bridges. My favorite is walking around in the pine forest.

Sakhalinskiy Zoobotanicheskiy Park

Zoo
Outdoor Activities
Park
Sakhalinskiy Zoobotanicheskiy Park is a small but charming zoo surrounded by sprawling trees. The park offers a petting zoo for younger visitors, feeding sessions, and exhibits that promote conservation. This facility showcases various animals in their natural habitats while also teaching visitors about the importance of preserving wildlife. Although it may not be the largest zoo around, it is a delightful destination for families with children who enjoy learning more about our planet's diverse fauna.
Little zoo but 3 years old daughter love it.

Olga S — Google review
Fun place
Cody G — Google review
(Translated by Google) The zoo was born in 1993 as a municipal project on the initiative of Mayor I.P. Farkhutdinov. Initially, the animals huddled on the territory of the city park, and by 1995 only 47 individuals of 21 species lived here. The turning point was 2000: after the transfer to regional ownership and renaming into a "zoobotanical park", a large-scale reconstruction began. Enclosures for deer, bears, an artificial lake for birds appeared, and later - an exposition "Primates" and spacious complexes for kangaroos and otters. Today it is the largest zoo in the Far East, preserving rare species in the extreme climate of the island. Unique inhabitants: - Red Book predators: Amur tigers, Far Eastern leopards and griffon vultures - participants in international rescue programs. - Exotic newcomers: capybaras, Bennett's kangaroos, banana-eating geckos and tomato frogs, brought in 2021-2022. - Local endemics: fish owl and Steller's sea eagle, whose populations in the wild are declining. - Botanical rarities: the territory is home to the pointed yew (up to 1000 years old!) and the densely-flowered pine from the Red Book of Russia. - 2021: the collection was replenished with 193 individuals, including Altai marals and crested porcupines. - 2022: a record offspring - 103 cubs (coatis, deer, lemurs) and the opening of an otter enclosure with a cascading waterfall. ⏰ Opening hours: - Summer (until October): 10:00–20:30 (ticket office until 19:30). - Winter: 10:00–18:00. The Primates and Aquariums exhibits are closed for sanitary days on Mondays and Wednesdays. - 💰 Prices: - Children (3–16 years): 250 ₽. - Adults: 350 ₽. - Seniors: 200 ₽. *You can purchase season tickets and online tickets with 10% cashback using the Mir card. Tips for visitors: 1. Take a golf cart (available since 2022) — the elevation difference on the territory is 60 meters, and the walking route is tiring. 2. Look for new enclosures — a raccoon house with an artificial stream and "towers" for martens, where the animals play on vertical structures. 3. Buy a souvenir with symbols in the shop (magnets, animal figurines) or order food insects through the park's online store. This is a place where the history of the struggle with harsh nature (snow up to 1.5 m!) turned into a history of triumph: 1300+ animals on 8 hectares, including those saved from extinction. I left with the thought that the local employees are real devotees: their work allows you to hear the roar of the Amur tiger among the Sakhalin hills and see Bennett's kangaroos frolicking under the snowflakes. P.S. Don't miss the otter feeding show at 15:00 — their play with water in the new enclosure is mesmerizing! (Original) Зоопарк родился в 1993 году как муниципальный проект по инициативе мэра И.П. Фархутдинова. Изначально животные ютились на территории городского парка, а к 1995 году здесь проживало всего 47 особей 21 вида. Переломным стал 2000 год: после перехода в областную собственность и переименования в «зооботанический парк» началась масштабная реконструкция. Появились вольеры для оленей, медведей, искусственное озеро для птиц, а позже — экспозиция «Приматы» и просторные комплексы для кенгуру и выдр . Сегодня это крупнейший зоопарк Дальнего Востока, сохраняющий редкие виды в экстремальном климате острова. Уникальные обитатели: - Краснокнижные хищники: амурские тигры, дальневосточные леопарды и белоголовые сипы — участники международных программ по спасению. - Экзотические новосёлы: капибары, кенгуру Беннета, гекконы-бананоеды и лягушки-помидоры, завезённые в 2021-2022 гг. - Местные эндемики: рыбный филин и белоплечий орлан, чьи популяции в природе сокращаются. - Ботанические редкости: на территории растут тис остроконечный (возраст до 1000 лет!) и сосна густоцветковая из Красной книги России. - 2021 год: коллекция пополнилась 193 особями, включая алтайских маралов и гребенчатых дикобразов. - 2022 год: рекордное потомство — 103 детёныша (носухи, олени, лемуры) и открытие вольера для выдры с каскадным водопадом. ⏰ Режим работы: - Летом (до октября): 10:00–20:30 (касса до 19:30). - Зимой: 10:00–18:00. Экспозиции «Приматы» и «Аквариумы» закрываются на санитарные дни по понедельникам и средам. - 💰 Цены: - Дети (3–16 лет): 250 ₽. - Взрослые: 350 ₽. - Пенсионеры: 200 ₽. *Доступна покупка абонементов и онлайн-билетов с кэшбэком 10% по карте «Мир». Советы посетителям: 1. Возьмите гольф-кар (доступен с 2022 года) — перепад высот на территории 60 метров, и пеший маршрут утомителен . 2. Ищите новые вольеры — дом енотов с искусственным ручьём и «башни» для харзы, где звери играют на вертикальных конструкциях. 3. Купите сувенир с символикой в лавке (магниты, статуэтки животных) или закажите кормовых насекомых через онлайн-магазин парка. Это место, где история борьбы с суровой природой (снегами до 1.5 м!) превратилась в историю триумфа: 1300+ животных на 8 гектарах, включая спасённых от вымирания . Уходил с мыслью, что здешние сотрудники — настоящие подвижники: их труд позволяет услышать рык амурского тигра среди сахалинских сопок и увидеть, как кенгуру Беннета резвятся под снежными хлопьями. P.S. Не пропустите шоу кормления выдр в 15:00 — их игра с водой в новом вольере завораживает!

(Translated by Google) Tickets for 300 rub. An interesting place, like any zoo in any major city, if you love animals. If you are with children, of course, it is a must visit. Clean, surrounded by flower beds. There is a cafe and souvenirs (although it is open until 18:00). The zoo is located near the park, so after it you can calmly stroll among the trees along the alley. (Original) Билеты по 300 р. Интересное место, как и любой зоопарк в любом крупном городе, если ты любишь животных. Если с детьми конечно посетить обязательно. Чисто, кругом клумбы с цветами. Есть кафе и сувенирная продукция ( правда работает до 18:00). Зоопарк находится около парка, поэтому после него можно спокойно прогуляться среди деревьев по аллее.

Sakhalin by the great Russian writer A.P. Chekhov. It would be great to create a project so that children throughout the region could visit this place online! (Original) Посетили с обучающими музей в рамках областных новогодних мероприятий. Как интересно было детям и мне на экскурсии о истории посещения о. Сахалин великим русским писателем А. П. Чеховым.

(Translated by Google) Chekov Memorial Hall, as we all know, the great Russian writer came to Sakhalin Island (Sakhalin) for field research and wrote "Sakhalin Travel Notes". My first impression of this was through Chekov's work. The book described it as a real hell, with prisoners exiled here and never able to return to the mainland. It was even more desperate than the Ningupa in my Qing Dynasty. The museum introduced the life on the island at that time through his works, and also reflected the social conditions on the island at that time. It can be regarded as reading Chekhov's book again. (Original) 契科夫纪念馆,众所周知俄罗斯大文豪来萨哈林岛(库页岛)做过田野调查,写下了《萨哈林旅行记》,我对这最初的印象就是通过契科夫的这部作品了解到的,书中把这描写成一座真人间地狱、囚犯流放至此,永世不得回大陆,比我大清国的宁古塔还要绝望。博物馆就是通过他的作品介绍了当时岛上的生活情况,也从侧面反映出了当时岛上的社会状况,也算是再过了一遍契科夫的这本书。
羊不凡 — Google review
(Translated by Google) Modern, newly built and relatively pointless museum. It is quite strange to dedicate a huge museum to a famous person who spent just over three months on Sakhalin. Hence - a small number of real household items of that time and a large number of modern exhibits illustrating antiquity. As a result: the local history museum is much more interesting! (Original) Современный, недавно построенный и относительно бессмысленный музей. Довольно странно посвящать огромный музей знаменитому человеку, пробывшему на Сахалине чуть более трех месяцев. Отсюда - небольшое количество реальных предметов быта того времени и большое количество современных экспонатов, иллюстрирующих старину. В итоге: в краеведческом музее гораздо интереснее!

(Translated by Google) You definitely have to go! I would never have thought that one book could become the basis of a museum! Maybe it’s well deserved! And without being boring.

Cathedral of the Nativity

Russian Orthodox church
Sights & Landmarks
Churches & Cathedrals
The Cathedral of the Nativity in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk is a remarkable addition to the city's architecture, boasting a stunning golden dome that reaches 81 meters high, making it the tallest church in the Russian Far East. Built following Novgorod architectural traditions, this cathedral features intricate details such as a mosaic of Jesus Christ at the central entrance and sky-blue domes.
(Translated by Google) The temple looks very impressive. The monumental staircase leading to the main entrance looks especially harmonious with this building. The temple is quite high, over 70 m. The sky-blue domes and the exterior decoration entirely made of marble are mesmerizing. This building truly deserves the status of a visiting card of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk (Original) Храм выглядит очень эффектно. Особенно гармонично с этим сооружение выглядит монументальная лестница ведущая к главному входу. Храм довольно высоких, выше 70 м. Купола небесно- голубого цвета и внешняя отделка полностью мрамором завораживают. Это сооружение действительно заслуживает статуса визитная карточка Южно-Сахалинска

(Translated by Google) It's a beautiful temple, I don't argue. We went there with our child and wanted to drink some water. We asked about cups, and a rude woman told us that they were on the shelf and supposedly clean (not disposable). We went up to one of the glasses and looked at it, it had lipstick on it, and this woman told us to take the one next to it, it didn't have lipstick on it. It was an unpleasant situation. Anyone could drink there even without lipstick, they could have rinsed it out. The tone was certainly rude. (Original) Красивый Храм не спорю, пошли туда с ребенком, хотели попить воды, спросили про стаканчики, на что нам грубая женщина ответила что там стоят на полке и якобы чистые (неодноразовые) , мы подошли посмотрели один из стаканов в губной помаде, и эта женщина нам сказала возьмите рядом стоящий он же без помады🤦не приятная ситуация, там мог пить кто угодно и без помады, можно было и ополоснуть, тон конечно было хамский

(Translated by Google) What a pity that the beauty of the Temple does not at all justify its direct purpose. I was amazed by the callousness of the servant, to such an extent that upon leaving the Temple, I felt nothing but emptiness, confusion and resentment! I came on the anniversary of my uncle’s death to light a candle for his repose and order a prayer service for his repose. I was denied the prayer service because my uncle was not baptized. They hurried, they said that they were closing, but there was still a little more than 20 minutes left before closing. When I asked why already, since there was still time, they told me that they were meeting in advance... this was the first bewilderment, that is, if a person works all day and rushes to church to pray, they won’t let him in, because the ministers want to go home , so understand this?! Okay, I swallowed it and went to light the candles, I couldn’t pray because the lights were already turned off (let me remind you there were still 20 minutes before closing), I turned around and wanted to go and barely light candles for my family for their health, but what was my shock, when I saw that all the candles were being blown out by the servants and it turned out that I had nowhere to put them... I was at a loss, how could this be? They just sent me away with my callous attitude. So I left the Temple with these candles, in tears and resentment for this place. Is this really what our church is like now?! (Original) Как жаль, что красота Храма вовсе не оправдывает прямое назначение его. Поражена бездушием служительницы, до такой степень, что выйдя из Храма, кроме пустоты, растерянности и обиды ничего не чувствовала! Пришла в день годовщины смерти родного дяди, чтоб поставить ему за упокой свечу и заказать молебен об упокоении. В Молебне мне отказали, потому что дядя некрещенный. Поторопили, сказали что закрываются, но до закрытия оставалось еще чуть больше 20 минут. На мой вопрос, почему уже, ведь есть еще время, мне сказали, что они собираются заранее… это было недоумение первое, то есть если человек работает весь день и спешит в церковь, чтоб помолиться, его не пустят уже, потому что служители хотят домой, так это понимать?! Ладно, я проглотила это и направилась ставить свечи,помолиться я уже не смогла, потому что свет уже был выключен (напомню до закрытия было еще 20 мин) , я развернулась и хотела пойти еле поставить свечи родным за здравие, но каков был мой шок, когда я увидела, что все свечи задувают служители и получается так, что мне и поставить то некуда… я пребывала в растерянности, как так? Просто выпроводили своим бездушным отношением. Так и вышла с Храма с этими свечами, в слезах и обиды за это место. Неужели вот такая теперь наша церковь?!

Lenin Square is a picturesque and lively destination, especially during the winter season. The square is adorned with snow, creating a charming atmosphere for visitors to enjoy. It features a lovely park with spacious areas and affordable street food options. Additionally, the square boasts beautiful roses and becomes even more enchanting in the evening when it is illuminated by numerous lights. It's an ideal spot to relax, people-watch, and take in the central city surroundings.
Must visit during the holidays season. You can always find something interesting.

If you're in Yuzhno and looking for a vibrant spot to unwind, look no further than Opera. This charming venue stands out not only for its delightful cocktails but also for its Korean-inspired cuisine that tantalizes the taste buds. While it may feel a bit snug when the live music starts up, the atmosphere is electric, making it an ideal place to gather with friends on weekends. The cozy rooms invite you to relax while enjoying their decent drink selection.
Few places in Yuzhno have good cocktails, opera is one of this. Food is more Korean style and also good. Quite cramped for dancing during live music.

We came by for lunch looking for Korean food. Food was alright - we ordered bibimbap, haemultang and some rolls (yes they do Japanese too and some western food). Been here once before for the bar and the scene can get quite happening here. Setting is more bar like than restaurant.

Nihon Mitai

Japanese restaurant
Nihon Mitai is a popular Japanese restaurant known for its great food and service, making it a top choice for many.

The menu offers mainly sushi and seafood, showcasing the evolving nature of Japanese cuisine overseas. It's advisable to make reservations in advance due to its popularity.
What a discovery- this restaurant is better than many restaurants in Japan
Sashkow S — Google review
Boy was this place packed! A colleague and I visited after trying other Japanese restaurants. While the menu was not as extensive as other restaurants but the flavors were excellent! We ordered a prawn and octopus salad, a ramen, flamed salmon roll, kohada sushi, spicy unagi sushi and sake + hamachi sashimi. Make sure reservations are made prior to turning up for dinner! Good English was spoken by our wait staff.

Good restaurant with Korean and Japanese cuisine. Went on multiple occasions. Place is always busy and Service is usually slow. Average cooking time is 10 min for sushi and 30-40 for mains.
Victor P — Google review
Hard to get into. Book in advance or if you just pop up - speak English, there is higher chance to get seated if you are expat. Food and service is great. Interior is not (looks a bit ran down, sushi belt doesn't work, lighting is blue-ish and irritating). Not the most child-friendly place in town. But we've been super lucky with waiters every time we ate there. They seem to be the most customer-centric people there. And one of the best-in-town places for 🍣.

(Translated by Google) I ordered the Bogatyrsky set, something like a gourmet, pizza and rolls in short. They called and said, there are 4 of us, please put 4 sets of sauces and sticks. Focused on this! They brought two soy sauces, two ginger, one wassabi. And not a single stick. I called, explained the situation, and they said we would solve it. The courier arrived and brought sticks and four more soy sauces! Wassabi! I needed wasabi and not soy! Why are you all smoking there?

We ordered pizza at 20:15 and they assured us that it would be delivered within an hour and a half! I called at 21:52, they apologized and said that the courier was on the way. Time 22:20 the courier never arrived. Moreover, the establishment is closed and no one answers calls! My family and guests are very upset and left with headaches!!! I will never order from this "office"!!! I don’t recommend ordering from them, so as not to upset yourself and your loved ones!!!

(Translated by Google) We ordered pizza and fries to two different addresses at the same time. They delivered to one address after an hour and a half, but they did not deliver to the second address even after 22:20. At the same time, we called and were assured that he was on his way, that the shift had changed. We called and no one answered us. The pizzeria is not open. Although our order was accepted! The worst thing is that the operator gave false information that the courier was on his way. We will never order again. The service is disgusting and customers are not valued at all. (Original) Заказали пиццу и картошку фри на два разных адреса в рдно время. На один адрес доставили через полтора часа , на второй адрес не доставили и после 22 20 часов. При этом мы позвонили нам уверили что он едет , что смена поменялась. Звоним а нам никто не ответил. Пиццерия не работает. Хотя заказ у нас приняли! Самое плохое, что оператор дала ложную информацию, о том что курьер едет. Больше никогда заказывать не будем. Сервис отвратительный и клиентов не ценят от слова совсем.

Visited Mishka Pub out of curiosity as there are indeed not many pubs around (3 perhaps?). Mishka is a nice British pub evident from football jerseys and other decor. Beers available on tap are Guinness, Baltika 8, Kozel, Stella Artois, Asahi. Food is quite standard pub fare, burger was alright and the blue cheese and bacon salad was also alright. The salmon with garlic bread was excellent! Barmaids can speak some English.

(Translated by Google) The whole family (parents, three children) went to Harlequin and Double Bass. More than half of the ordered dishes were not available; replacements were constantly offered. We waited for a very long time (like in a restaurant). They brought the dishes one at a time, and with long breaks (one eats, everyone looks at him and waits for theirs). Some unfortunate pancakes waited for more than an hour and didn’t get it :( In general: yes, the place is beautiful, the decoration is not bad, but... Everything cancels out “such” service and “service”. Never set foot there again. Spoiled mood and evening. It’s a pity Although at other points there are no complaints about Harlequin. (Original) Всей семьёй (родители, трое детей) пошли в Арлекин и Контрабас. Из заказанных блюд больше половины не было, постоянно предлагали замену. Ждали очень долго (как в ресторане). Приносили блюда по одному, и с большими перерывами (один ест, все на него смотрят и ждут своего). Какие-то несчастные драники больше часа ждали и не дождались :( В общем: да, место красивое, оформление неплохое, но... Всё перечеркивает "такое" обслуживание и "сервис". Больше ни ногой туда. Испорченное настроение и вечер. Жаль. Хотя в других точках к Арлекину нет претензий.

Just 2 stars because the service is incredible bad. This restaurant has 2 floors, if you sit in top floor don't expect to have everything offered in the menu available, some of the offers you need to go to ground floor, order there, pay then take it by yourself up or if for some reason they agreed to bring it up for you, you anyway need to go down and pay separately. The food is actually good but the service is so bad that I cannot give that restaurant any other visit or talk good about them.

(Translated by Google) After the ceremonial ceremony on September 1, I brought my child to this cafe. Overall the place is not bad, it was crowded that day, but we were lucky and were able to have lunch. But dinner wanted to wait for the best. I understand that Italian pizza is made from the thinnest dough, but nevertheless it should not be burnt. The waiter’s answer to the question why the pizza was burnt killed me, to put it mildly: “it turns out pizza is supposed to be like that, that is, burnt.” I found a hair in a hot dish, but didn’t make a fuss, afraid to hear that this is how it should be. Next I'll most likely look for another place to stay. (Original) После торжественной линейки 1 сентября привела ребенка в это кафе. В целом место неплохое, в этот день было многолюдно, но нам повезло и мы смогли пообедать. Но обед желал ждать лучшего. Я понимаю, что итальянская пицца из тончайшего теста, но тем не менее не должна быть горелой. Ответ официанта на вопрос почему пицца подгорелая меня мягко говоря убил: " оказывается пицца и должна быть такой, то есть горелой🤔. В горячем блюде нашла волос, но уже не стала поднимать шум, побоясь услышать что и это так и должно быть. В следующий раз скорей всего буду искать другое место для отдыха.

The modern ambiance and friendly staff make it an enjoyable place to dine, especially for families with kids who can enjoy some activities upstairs.

However, some travelers find the business lounge to be too small. Overall, visitors have described their experience at Aeroport Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk as lovely and memorable.
The best airport in entire Universe, everything about it is great. Unfortunately can't fly to Turkmenabat, but I hope this will change soon Привет от семьи😇😇🙌🙌🙌
