Bolshoy Uluy

Bolshoy Uluy lies on the right bank of the Chulym, where the river of the same name joins it from the south. The village was established in the 1770s in the forested country north of Achinsk. Its inhabitants cultivated crops including rye, oats, buckwheat, millet and flax. The Chulym carries water west across Siberia to the Ob, linking the settlement with a much larger river system.
