Pavlodar (Template:IPAc-en; Template:Langx {{#invoke:IPA|main}} Template:Pronunciation; Template:Langx {{#invoke:IPA|main}}) is a city in northeastern Kazakhstan and the capital of Pavlodar Region. It is located Template:Convert northeast of the national capital Astana and Template:Convert southeast of the Russian city of Omsk along the Irtysh River. In 2010, the city had a population of 331,710.<ref name="stat">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The population of Pavlodar is composed predominantly of ethnic Kazakhs and Russians, with significant Ukrainian, German, Tatar and North Caucasian minorities. The city is served by Pavlodar Airport.

HistoryEdit

One of the oldest cities in northern Kazakhstan, Pavlodar was founded in the 9th century as the settlements of Khakan-Kimak and Imakia, the capitals of the Kimek–Kipchak confederation.Template:Citation needed

Koryakovsky fort was founded in 1720 as an Imperial Russian outpost. The settlement was created to establish control over the region's salt lakes, an important source of valuable salt. In 1861 the settlement was renamed Pavlodar and incorporated as a town. Pavlodar's significance was due in large measure to the substantial agricultural and salt-producing industries that had developed there despite the town's relatively small population. Pavlodar's population numbered only about 8,000 in 1897. The name Pavlodar means The Gift of Paul, and was chosen to commemorate the birth of the Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovich of Russia.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

After 1955, the Soviet Government's Virgin Lands Campaign provided the impetus for the rapid growth and development of modern Pavlodar. Under the program, large numbers of young men and women from throughout the Soviet Union were relocated to the city; industrial and commercial activity was increased; and from the mid-1960s on, Pavlodar grew to become a major industrial centre of both the Kazakh SSR and of the Soviet Union because of a major arms and armour manufacturing facility located in the city.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

On April 1, 2020, the city was subject to quarantine in an attempt to slow the spread of COVID-19.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>Template:Update inline

River PortEdit

Currently, Pavlodar River Port JSC is operating — a large transport and industrial enterprise engaged in cargo transit, extraction and sale of river sand, sells and transports crushed stone, coal, performs work on cleaning hydrological facilities.

Pavlodar River Port JSC is one of the active ports on the Irtysh River.

The project of the modern Pavlodar river port was developed in 1955 by the design institute "Giprorechtrans" on the instructions of the Ministry of the River Fleet of the USSR. Since 1965, the former wharf of Pavlodar, by the decree of the Council of Ministers of the Kazakh SSR, was renamed the Pavlodar River Port. Since that moment, a river port equipped with the latest transshipment equipment has been functioning in Pavlodar. By the mid-1980s, the Pavlodar River Port had become the largest transshipment hub. At that time, the Pavlodar River Port was in first place among forty river ports of the Soviet Union in terms of cargo transshipment volumes. During this period, on average, about 6.5 million tons of various cargoes were transported per year. Since 2001, Pavlodar River Port JSC has been a private enterprise.

Bus serviceEdit

There are 21 bus routes<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and 13 minibus (marshrutka) routes<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> in the city.
