Battery Hill and Udinskoye Ostrog Founding Site
Ulan-Ude, Batareynaya Gora, at the base of Prospekt Pobedy
On Batareinaya Hill, overlooking the right bank of the Ud River, is the historical center where Ulan-Ude originated. Here, in the 17th century, the first Russian fortress—Udinsky—was established. From the hilltop, there is a picturesque view of the river valley, recalling the city's early steps and its significant role in Siberia's history.
