History
During the Balhae Kingdom period, a town called Anju was founded near the present-day Olga, on the shores of the Olga Bay.
The military post of Olga was established by the Russians in 1858,[4] several months after the region passed to Russia under the terms of the Treaty of Aigun. It was named for St. Olga. In the 19th century, it had a significant Chinese minority. This town has a similar name to the eldest daughter of Nicholas II.
