08-20-2008 In the near future the Russian State Duma is expected to issue the long-awaited changes to the Federal Law regulating the incoming and outgoing rules for foreigners in Russia.
These changes will allow the foreign tourists who come to the Russian sea ports by ferry-boats, stay on the Russias territory up to three days (or 72 hours) without getting a Russian visa.
The foreign travel companies are in the first place attracted by the Baltic and the Black sea opportunities. The ferries can also regularly deliver Japanese tourists to Vladivostok and Nakhodka, Russian sea ports in the Pacific, thus giving an impetus to the tourism development in the Russian Far East.
08-18-2008 In 2009 a regular bus line is expected to be opened between Khabarovsk, the capital of the Russian Far East and Harbin, the largest city near the border in northeast China, via check-points Bikin (Pokrovka) on the Russian border and Raohe on the Chinese side. In summer it will be provided by ferries going across the Ussuri River, the main tributary of the Amur. A possibility of its operation in winter time on the ice-bound river is being discussed. The 800 km bus ride from Khabarovsk to Harbin will take 16 hours. It is arranged for tour groups and for individual travelers.
08-13-2008 "INTOUR-KHABAROVSK" Travel Company participates in JATA World Travel Fair which is held on September, 19-21 at Tokyo Big Sight Exhibition Hall. JATA Travel Show always attracts exhibitors of travel and tourism industry from around 130 countries. "Intour-Khabarovsk" traditionally takes part in it.

08-06-2008 On August 4, 2008 a ceremonial launching of a new-type local electric train took place in Khabarovsk. This event was dedicated to the professional holiday of the Russian railway workers. Three new trains made up of ten cars each, will be put into operation in August 2008. The trains manufactured by a machine-building plant in Demikhovo near Moscow are to meet the demands of the Russias railways aimed at a rolling- stock renewal. The total cost of the new trains is 415,8ml roubles.
