This Red Rock which looks like a
sculptor’s masteroiece is situated on the
the small Reineke Island, which is
located south-west of the
Sea of
Okhotsk between Shantarsky island and the Sakhalin Island, 5 km to the north
of the mainland continent. Administratively it is part of the Nikolaev District
of
Khabarovsk Territory.
The
island is the natural border between Udsky and Sakhalin bays. Both the island
and the bay are named after the famous Russian hydrographer, vice-admiral and
director of the Hydrographic Department Michail Reineke. And yes, this lovely
card was given to me by
Sveta from
Khabarovsk.
