Locations in Russia

The 120 most notable are above. Every place in Russia, A to Z, with how many productions each carries:

Set in Russia, not filmed there

4 more places in Russia appear on this atlas because a game, an anime or a manga is SET there. Nothing was filmed at them: a drawn or rendered work is filmed nowhere, and some of these places are invented and pinned on what Wikidata says they are based on.

Also shot in Russia, without a precise location

Wikidata records 55 more productions as shot in Russia while naming only the country or the state: true, and too coarse to pin, so they are named here rather than dropped or guessed at.

Also named as shot in Russia by their Wikipedia articles

19 productions name Russia in their Wikipedia articles as where they were shot, without a place inside it, so they are listed here rather than pinned or dropped.

Productions filmed in Russia

507 more productions are listed on the pages of the places above.
