Dudinka
(Russian: Dudinka, Nenets: Tut'yn) is a city on the Yenisei River and the administrative center of the Taimyr Dolgano-Nenets Okrug in Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia. Previously, it was the administrative center of the Taimyr Autonomous Okrug, which was annexed to the Krasnoyarsk Territory on January 1, 2007. Population: 22,175 (2010 census); [2] 25,132 (2002 census); [7] 32,325 (1989 census).[8]
Economics [edit]
Dudinka processes and sends cargo via the Norilsk Railway to the Norilsk Mining and Metallurgical Combine, and also ships non-ferrous metals, coal and ore. In 1969, the Messoyakha -Dudinka-Norilsk natural gas pipeline was laid.
Port of Dudinka
Dudinka is a port in the lower reaches of the Yenisei, accessible to sea vessels. The city is served by Dudinka Airport.
Infrastructure[edit]
Chaika mast in Dudinka
Near Dudinka there is a 462-meter (1,516 ft) high radio mast that was formerly used for the "Chaika" radio navigation system. This is a grounded mast with a rhombic lattice antenna. [10]
Bright, expensive, large-scale
If you don’t have friends who can shelter you, don’t despair - there are three hotels in Dudinka. For 2500 rubles (average price per day) do not expect luxury. This is a ticket back to the past, the situation there is a natural Soviet of the 90s (and if you’re unlucky, then even more ancient mansions). And yes, for an hour of using wi-fi they will charge you around 300 rubles.
You can also rent an apartment daily. Even for a thousand and a half. But get ready that it will be in unknown condition and, perhaps, even without a kitchen. And if such living conditions begin to make you depressed, think that, for example, travelers Fridtjof Nansen, Khariton Laptev and Nikolai Urvantsev once lived in Dudinka in much worse conditions. And without the Internet.
If you are lucky enough to come to Dudinka in the summer and you are not afraid of midges, then you can just take a walk around the city. Moreover, the houses, which are intricately “stuck” at different heights, were painted in cheerful rainbow colors. The facades had been colored before, but during my visit I saw buildings of such dirty shades that the whole city looked like one huge, shabby mental hospital.
The port occupies a special place. This is Dudinka’s “breadwinner”. After all, for his sake, in fact, the city was founded. You can't help but go to the port! You can sit comfortably on a bench on the shore and watch the work in full swing here. Tower cranes load containers onto huge orange icebreakers - the scale of the action immediately amazes the inexperienced viewer. And all this happens to the cry of polar gulls. And if you're lucky, you'll be able to see military vessels going out for exercises. Great, isn't it?
And walk along the summer Dudinka at night - this, of course, is not St. Petersburg, baby, but it is light, like in the Northern capital. Polar day.Climate[edit]
Despite the fact that Dudinka is located more than one and a half degrees above the Arctic Circle, it has a subarctic climate ( Köppen climate classification Dfc
) with short mild summers and severely cold winters. Precipitation is moderate; falls mostly as rain in the summer and mostly as snow the rest of the year.

Real estate Dudinki
Dudinka's housing stock consists mainly of 5- and 9-story comfortable houses built on stilts driven into permafrost. There are almost no new houses in the city, due to the fact that many pensioners are taking advantage of the resettlement program in the southern cities of Russia, and some young people are not comfortable living in the harsh climate, and they move to other cities on their own. But this has its advantages (we'll talk about them later).
A one-room apartment can be purchased for 800 thousand rubles, a two-room apartment for about 1.2 million rubles, and a large, three-room apartment for about 1.5 million.
Utility bills in winter are exorbitant, up to 7 thousand rubles per month for a 3-room apartment. Consequently, it is easier for new residents to buy an apartment outright rather than rent. In Dudinka you can rent a one-room apartment for about 15,000 rubles per month, but some employers offer people from other cities compensation for rent during the first 3 years of living in Dudinka.
Sports and entertainment[edit]
The Taimyr Ice Arena is a newly built facility for hockey, figure skating and curling in Dudinka. This is the northernmost ice arena in the world and is suitable for hosting high-level international events. The arena's capacity is 350 spectators. [13] The 2017 CCT Arctic Cup took place in the city of Dudinka at the Taimyr Ice Arena on May 18–22, 2022. It was the first international curling tournament among women's teams in the Arctic Circle. The event took place with the participation of 8 strongest teams from the northern countries located on the 69th parallel. Participating teams: Russian team, Krasnoyarsk team, Canadian team, USA team, Finnish team. The Swiss team was given a wild card by the Organizing Committee. [14]Since 2022, Dudinka has become the venue for the international Arctic Curling Cup tournament every year. The test event of this tournament was the TAYMYR CURLING CUP 2016. On May 26–30, 2016, the first ever curling tournament among men's teams in the Arctic Circle was held in Dudinka. The tournament was held as a test event for the Arctic Curling Cup. . Six of the strongest men's teams in Russia took part in the tournament. In 2022, Dudinka held the final round of the international Arctic Curling Cup. The 10 strongest teams competed in the double mix, 3 of which were Russian. Maria Komarova and Daniil Goryachov received bronze medals at this tournament.

[inpage] 17. The port of Dudinka is one of the largest sea and river ports on the Yenisei. During year-round navigation, it processes about two million tons of cargo. The port is located on the right bank of the Yenisei River at its confluence with the Dudinka River, 100 km from the city of Norilsk and 220 nautical miles from the confluence of the Yenisei into the Kara Sea.
In 2022, the Dudinsky seaport celebrated its 80th anniversary.
18. The port is a unique hydraulic structure - it is the only port in the world where the berths are flooded during the spring flood, and every year before the flood, the portal cranes are completely evacuated and all engineering structures are dismantled. After ice drift and water recession, restoration work is carried out and the cranes are returned to their regular places on the berths.
19. In 2007, during the restructuring carried out in the Polar Branch of Norilsk Nickel, the Polar Transport Branch (ZTF) was created - the successor to the Dudinsky seaport, processing 95% of all incoming cargo addressed to the Company, consumers of Norilsk and the Taimyr region, and shipping finished products enterprises of the Polar Branch of Norilsk Nickel on ships heading to various ports in Russia and the world.
20. The history of the port is inextricably linked with the start of construction of the Norilsk Mining and Metallurgical Combine in July 1935. Due to the remoteness of Norilsk from the main waterway - the Yenisei River, the lack of other types of communications and harsh climatic conditions - the port of Dudinka was of exceptional importance. Dudinka became a transshipment point for cargo destined for Norilsk - construction materials, equipment, food and goods for the population, as well as coal and finished products coming from Norilsk.
21. In 1982, the port received the status of “Dudino Sea Port”; in 2012, a permanent cargo-passenger checkpoint across the Russian state border was officially opened here. In 1987, the highest volume of cargo turnover of the Dudinsky port was achieved - 7.025 million tons; in the 2000s it stabilized at around 4 million tons, most of which were accounted for by the ZTF.
22. In terms of facilities and equipment, the Dudinsky port has 30 berths for general use, 8 of them can accommodate sea vessels with a draft of up to 10 meters. ZTF processes cargo arriving year-round along the Northern Sea Route.
23. Since 2001, ZTF began to receive imported lifting mechanisms. During this time, the port received a total of 11 mobile cranes and five gantry cranes manufactured by Liebherr.
24. Dudinsky port has its own fleet, which consists of 11 vessels: sea and river tugs, with a capacity from 250 to 2800 hp, an icebreaker, a pilot boat, a bilge water collector, and a bunker tanker.
The Company's marine fleet consists of six ice-class vessels: five dry cargo ships and a tanker. This is enough to ensure year-round movement of all materials by sea.
25. Every year from October 20 to May 15, the port operates in winter (Arctic) navigation mode. Norilsk Nickel’s own vessels travel along the Northern Sea Route without icebreaker support. Ice work when mooring ships to berths is carried out by port icebreakers. We will also go on a tour to the cargo ship Zapolyarny, but for now we will continue around the city.
26. We visited the Taimyr Museum of Local Lore - one of the largest in the Krasnoyarsk Territory.
27. The unique skeleton of the baby mammoth Zhenya was found in 2012, three kilometers from the Sopochnaya Karga weather station in the Taimyr tundra. It was determined that this was a male individual who died at the age of 15-16 years. It was discovered by teenager Evgeniy Salinder, after whom the find is named. In the spring of 2013, the remains of the mammoth Zhenya were taken from Taimyr to St. Petersburg for study and conservation, and after 3 years Zhenya returned “home”.
28. An 11-year-old boy who discovered a rare find on the seashore in Taimyr said that a specific smell led him to the burial site. The carcass was so well preserved because it lay in a swampy area without open access to oxygen. But the left side was more rotten. Local residents dug up the carcass very carefully and did not damage anything. The photo shows a model of Zhenya in the position in which he was found. The skeleton above is real.
29. The uniqueness of the find lies in the fact that after 30 thousand years, wool, remains of fat, skin and even internal organs were preserved on the bones. Can you guess three times what's behind the glass?
30. DARIUS VALERIYA NOVOSIBIRSK - just the name of the store.
31.
32. One of the symbols of Dudinka is a crane, decorated like a giraffe, standing in the port.
33. Helipad.
34. Everyone takes pictures next to the giraffe.
35. This is what it is like, a city built on permafrost.
