Voronezh region is a rather large region for the European part of Russia. Some parts of this subject of the federation are significantly removed from the center, which leads to the appearance of some special color. We will deal with Cantemirovka and its features.
General information
Kantemirovka of the Voronezh region is an urban-type settlement, which is the center of one of the southern regional regions. It is located on the very border with Ukraine and represents the deep edge of the region.
In Soviet times, this area was exclusively agricultural and developed thanks to existing collective farms, the legacy of which is still used by Russian farmers. There was also production in the region, but during the formation of a market economy, all of them went bankrupt and safely closed.
Today, the region’s economy is being pushed forward by small enterprises in the form of a plant for construction materials, soft drinks, as well as several companies representing the services sector.

How to get there
Previously, a large railway junction Voronezh-Lugansk passed through the district center. With the aggravation of relations between neighboring states, it was decided to build new ways, bypassing Ukrainian territory. Since then, the line in Kantemirovka of the Voronezh region has gradually begun to die. In 2017, trains from Voronezh were a rarity, now it is almost impossible to buy tickets. Perhaps this section of the railway was finally closed (it was planned to stop operation in 2018).
Regular buses from the central bus station go to Kantemirovka of the Voronezh region. Departure takes place twice a day (8.45 and 14.45). It is better to check the operational information before a trip or buying tickets.

By your own car you can get a little more than 3 hours. The road will be of high quality, but not the easiest. Every few kilometers there are cameras for monitoring compliance with the speed limit, so it will not be possible to accelerate.
If you go through a search service for travel companions, you can save time and money. The average cost of a trip from Voronezh to Kantemirovka is 450 rubles. Thus, you save 200 rubles and 3 hours of valuable time. Of course, this event is not for everyone, but for experienced travelers a ride is an ideal way to travel.
