to the Sayan Mountains in the south.
  Krasnoyarsk is a city and administrative centre of Krasnoyarsk kray
(region), east-central Russia. The city stands on both banks of the 
Enisey River where the river is crossed by the  Trans-Siberian Railroad. 
One of the earliest Russian settlements in Siberia, it was founded as 
the fort of Krasny Yar in 1628 on the left bank of the Yenisey.
  Yenisey River is one of the longest rivers on the continent,
flowing from south to north across central Russia. In the 1960s one of
the largest hydroelectric stations in the world was constructed there on
the Yenisey.
  Krasnoyarsk is famous for its nature. The "Stolby" was one of first
reserves organized in the taiga zone of Russia. It holds unique
granite-syenite rocks up to 100 metres high.
