Nazarovo

Nazarovo lies on the left bank of the Chulym, a tributary of the Ob, in a basin west of Krasnoyarsk. The village was named for the peasant Nazariy Patyukov, who settled near the mouth of the Adadym. Its setting on the Chulym connected the settlement with the river country of southern Siberia, where cultivated land and woodland meet in the broad basin.
