Nagatinsky Zaton District

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nagatinsky Zaton District (Russian: район Нагатинский Затон) is a district in Southern Administrative Okrug of Moscow, Russia, located on the right bank of the Moskva River. The name Nagatino comes from a former village, known since the 14th century, which was engulfed by Moscow in 1960. District authorities control Kolomenskoye park, four permanent uninhabited islands on Moskva River and the peninsula of Nagatino Poima on its opposite, northern bank.
