Location of the city of Hulin in China

Hulin ( Chinese  虎林市 , pinyin Hǔlín Shì  - "Tiger Forest") is a city on the banks of the left Ussuri -Nebenflusses Muling River with 300,000 inhabitants (end of 2004) and a total area of 9,329 square kilometers in the province of Heilongjiang of the People's Republic of China . Their population density is 32.16 inh / km². On June 14, 1993, the former Hulin County was placed under the district-free city of Jixi . He had previously belonged to Mudanjiang . On October 11, 1996, the Hulin District was finally dissolved and the city of Hulin was established on its administrative territory.

Hulin also includes the 0.74 km² Ussuri island of Zhenbao Dao (territorially identical to the "municipality of Zhenbaodao"), on which several armed, loss-making border incidents with the Soviet Union occurred in 1969 . Both countries considered the island as their territory. It was only in the Sino-Russian border agreement of October 14, 2004 that Russia recognized Zhenbaodao as part of China. After the National People's Congress on April 27, 2005 and the Duma on May 20, 2005 approved the treaty and ratification by the presidents of both countries, this regulation became valid under international law.
