Kenada

Kenada is located in the mountains of the Sikhote-Alin Range on the Muli River (a tributary of the Tumnin River ).

The village was founded in 1955. The first residents moved to the village from the closed Agniy-Afanasyevsky mine in the Ulchi district of the Khabarovsk Territory. Soon after the New Year’s 1955 meeting, a toboggan train with the property of immigrants, as well as the necessary tool, set off from Agniy Afanasyevsk along the winter road. The immigrants themselves, and this was exclusively the male part of the inhabitants of the future village, set off in the bodies of trucks. Women and children arrived in Kenadu this summer. The reunited families settled in two barracks on a mountainside next to the railway and the railway bridge over the Muli River. The Muli River not far from the bridge, resting on a hill, turned right, in this place there was a ford of the road leading to the mine. The village was created as the center of the gold mining industry of Vaninsky district. The village began building from the area between the station and the Muli River. Near the station were a power-saw bench and a diesel power station. In the summer of 1955, the first houses appeared, the construction of the school began. Gold was mined open pit. Attempts were made to mine ore gold, but mine production was curtailed. After the crisis of the early 1990s, the village stopped exploring new gold deposits, and the old gradually exhausted their resources. Gradually, gold mining began to give way to logging .

The main part of the village is located north of the railway, which divides the village into two parts. The streets are parallel to the railway.

The part of the village, which is located south of the railway, is called by the local residents of Nakhalovka. According to the testimony of local residents, the name was due to the fact that the houses in this part of the village are randomly located, since the development was not carried out according to plan. On the plans of the village in this part of the city there are streets, however, even the residents of Nakhalovka, as a rule, do not know their names. In addition, there are residential buildings near the railway station (currently 2 families live in them).
