The Albazinians (Russian: албазинцы; simplified Chinese: 阿尔巴津人; traditional Chinese: 阿爾巴津人) are one of several Chinese ethnic groups of Russian descent. There are approximately 250 Albazinians in China who are descendants of about fifty Russian Cossacks who fought at the Siege of Albazin on the Amur River that were resettled by the Kangxi Emperor in the northeastern periphery of Beijing in 1685.
