More information about the video content bellow:
1. Krasnodar Krai is a federal subject of Russia (a krai), located in the North Caucasus region. The third most-populous federal subject, the krai had a population of 5,226,647. Adygea is an enclave entirely within the krai.

2. During the 6th century BCE, Pontic Greeks founded the area's first cities.

3. Krasnodar is a city and the administrative center of Krasnodar Krai. Krasnodar officially reached a population of 1,000,007 on September 22, 2018, thus the city is the 16th most populated city in Russia, and also the country's 16th city with at least a million inhabitants. Krasnodar was founded on January 12, 1794 as Yekaterinodar. The original name meant "Catherine's Gift", recognizing both Catherine the Great's grant of land in the Kuban region to the Black Sea Cossacks and Saint Catherine of Alexandria, who is considered to be the patron of the city. City status was granted in 1867. On December 7, 1920, as a result of the October Revolution, Yekaterinodar was renamed Krasnodar (Gift of the Reds).

4. Novorossiysk is Russia's main port on the Black Sea, one of the few cities awarded the title of the Hero City.

5. Sochi was host of the XXII Olympic Winter Games in 2014.

6. Krasnodar krai is the warmest region of Russia. The climate is mostly temperate continental, on the Black Sea coast from Anapa to Tuapse - semi-arid Mediterranean climate, south of Tuapse - humid subtropical. Winters are mild and summers are hot. Tourism is an important sector of the economy of Krasnodar krai. It is actively developing on the coast of the Black and Azov Seas, as well as in mountain and steppe districts of the region. The main centers of tourism are the resorts of federal significance (Sochi, Gelendzhik and Anapa) and the resorts of regional significance (Yeisk, Goryachiy Klyuch and Tuapse district). Due to a combination of favorable climatic conditions, availability of mineral waters and curative mud, Krasnodar krai is the most popular resort and tourist region of Russia and in fact the only one in Russia seaside spa and recreational center.

On the northern slopes of the mountain is located one of the largest glaciers in the Krasnodar Territory with a total area of about 2,500 square metres, descending the steep slopes with three narrow tongues.

THANK YOU so much for this video. I've been searching all over the internet for days trying to find the pronunciation of "Yekaterinodar" and it was pretty much impossible. Thank you for the history lesson of this beautiful region 👍

Welcome back! This was a cool episode. Major news only ever mentions the Kremlin, Moscow city and occasionally Siberia. There's so much more of Russia to be researched and reported on.

So, can we consider Krasnodar Krai as Russia's California?

[Stanley.]

I would be interested to know if anyone could elaborate on the climate of this city in comparison to a part of America with comparable climate.
I am interested in visiting Russia some day.
