Gogland
Gogland or Hogland ((ロシア語:Гогланд); (フィンランド語:Suursaari); (スウェーデン語:Hogland), (エストニア語:Suursaar), (ドイツ語:Hochland)) is an island in the Gulf of Finland in the eastern Baltic Sea, about 180 km west of Saint Petersburg and 35 km from the coast of Finland (near Kotka). Hogland has an area of approximately ; its highest point is . It belongs to Russia's Kingiseppsky District in the Leningrad Oblast.
Hogland's tourist industry is growing in importance, with most tourists coming from St. Petersburg, and some from Finland. In 2006, however, Russian authorities declared Hogland a 'border area', which means that foreign nationals are not allowed to travel to the island without special permits. This limits tourism from abroad to small groups admitted one at a time, and adds extensive bureaucracy to applications for permission to visit the island.
==Name==
There is some confusion regarding the transliteration of the name from the Russian language. The name Hogland has never actually changed; however, in Russian, the sound h is traditionally rendered as g in older transliterations, thus the Russian version of the name has always been Gogland. Since being ceded to Russia the Russian name form, as seen on many maps, is often used in western languages.
