Arctic tourism in Russia is a part of tourism in the Arctic territory - a physical and geographical region of the Earth adjacent to the North Pole and incorporating the outskirts of the mainland in the territorial waters of the Russian Federation in the Arctic Ocean and the land territories of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation.
Tourism operators in the Russian Federation offer sea cruises, rafting, boating, fishing and hunting, skiing and hiking routes in the Arctic region. Arctic expedition tourism, with routes passing through the islands of the Arctic Ocean, is also in demand.
The main treasure of the Russian North is its indigenous peoples. Fifteen indigenous native minorities live in the Arctic. Each of them has its own unique and multifaceted culture. But all of them are guardians of a way of life and traditions that have existed for thousands of years. The Krasnoyarsk Territory is home to representatives of the indigenous native minorities of the North: the Dolgans, the Evenks, the Nenets, the Kets, the Nganasans, the Selkups, the Enets, and the Chulyms. Each of these peoples has contributed to the historical development of the region.
The postage stamps and the margins of the souvenir sheet feature, against the Arctic landscape, representatives of indigenous peoples in national costumes living in the Krasnoyarsk Territory: the Enets, the Nenets, the Dolgans, the Selkups, the Kets, the Nganasans, the Chulyms and the Evenks.
The composition of the souvenir pack in cover “Arctic tourism. Indigenous native minorities of the Krasnoyarsk Territory (2nd form of issue)” includes strip №3557-I-3558-I “Arctic Tourism series. Indigenous native minorities of the Krasnoyarsk Territory” with holographic foil.
