Like any kin’s settlement, Velikoye is located in the countryside. But, this kin’s settlement, unlike all others, combines opportunities for a quiet life without the hustle and bustle of the city and opportunities for work in the city.
Velikoye settlement offers the opportunity for its residents to live in a quiet countryside, but still have access to the advantages of the big city. This allows people to enjoy the best of both worlds: nature and development. This harmony attracts both young people and families who value comfort and quality of life.
