Chinese Amur Cliff
ul. Shevchenko, 15
The Amur Cliff is rightly considered a silent symbol of Khabarovsk. The place where it is built is connected with the foundation of the city and the events of the Civil War.
The building on the top of the cliff appeared during the Great Patriotic War, in November 1943, as a military air defense post No. 1 to monitor the airspace and was supposed to be a temporary pavilion, but it survived not only the hardships of wartime, but also all the further vicissitudes of history. Since the 1950s, it has housed a rescue station and later a DOSAAF maritime school.
The cliff was also used as a park viewpoint, and in the 1980s, after reconstruction, a cafe was opened there. In 1991, the cliff was included in the list of cultural monuments of regional importance, and in 2012 it was transferred to the Ministry of Culture of the Khabarovsk region.
In 2013, after restoration, the building was handed over to the Khabarovsk Krai Museum, where the Amursky Utyos Museum and Cultural Center was opened. The dominant feature of the exposition was to recreate the atmosphere of the city's pre-revolutionary past: the culture, life and leisure of the nobility, intellectuals and the richest representatives of the merchant class.
After a major renovation of the architectural monument, the Khabarovsk Territory Tourist Information Center has been located in the building since September 1, 2024. And in June 2025, the museum and cultural center returned to the ground floor with an updated exposition "Governor's Living Room" and an expanded program. Now, in addition to the classic guest visits, master classes and music salons, interactive tours, meetings of the Family Values Club and theatrical evenings are waiting for visitors. The legendary "Silent Friday" - an art project with a seven-year history - has returned to its native walls: screening of silent movie masterpieces with live accompaniment! After all, the heart of the exposition is a grand piano of the C.M. Schroeder factory (1881)!
