View on the hill Burachka – in the must visit list of most guests of Vladivostok

Widow on the hill Burachka is one of the popular must visit objects for tourists coming to Vladivostok. Every year the number of visits increases. Since the beginning of the opening, more than 1.1 million visitors: citizens and guests of the city were able to assess the panorama of the Far Eastern capital. The number of visits was recorded by CCTV cameras installed on the site. The popularity of the species is growing every year. So, in 2021, Burachka came more than 120 thousand times, in 2022 - 450 thousand, and in 2023 - 566 thousand.

We have a bus tour "Two hills +1". In the summer they are very popular. Tourists visit the hills of Krestovaya and Burachka, which offers a breathtaking view of the city. Booking this route is always quick, was not disappointed. On the contrary, people are overwhelmed with emotions from the sea, bridges, the city located on the hills, the sun, the sea wind, says Tatyana Stishkovskaya, head of the Vladivostok Bridges company. They go in groups and alone, with children and companies. Seasonality does not matter, but the priority is the warm months of the year. In August 2023, visitors to the species set a real record. There were 217 thousand visits per month, including 57.5 thousand – children, 84.5 thousand – middle-aged people, 75.3 thousand – the elderly. On the hill there are two points for photography: a large one at the top and a small one at the bottom, and this makes it possible to take a walk almost around the entire hill and make memorable shots. Recently, an excursion was organized for “adult participants” of the first Winter International Sports Games “Children of Primorye”, and a visit to the viewing area on Burachka was in the program. Those who came to Vladivostok for the first time were amazed by what they saw. Our tourists visit the view on Burachka very often. Sometimes we even drive spontaneously when traffic is difficult. And in general, of the total number of guests that our company receives during the year, almost 35-40% climb to the site as part of excursion routes, said Anna Filimonova, General Director of the Roads of Peace company.

All Chinese tourists are taken to the view. It doesn't bother you. It's in the program, so we have to go. We're in no hurry. During the ascent there is an opportunity for rest, another photo shoot, search for familiar objects. We know that all these “works” during the ascent will then be rewarded: the panorama seen has not left anyone indifferent. Moreover, it can be difficult to complete this tour: guests are ready to take photos and be photographed indefinitely, added Dmitry Pavlov, head of the Katyusha International Tourism Agency.
