Koidula, Setomaa Parish
Koidula is a village in Setomaa Parish, Võru County, in southeastern Estonia, on the border with Russia. (retrieved 27 July 2021) It's located few kilometers northwest of Russian town Pechory. Koidula is the border crossing point of Karisilla–Pechory road (nr. 63), Tartu–Pechory and Valga–Pechory railways. Currently only Tartu–Pechory line is open to freight traffic, Valga–Pechory is inactive. In 2011, a new railway station was built in the neighbouring Matsuri village.

Estonia–Russia Border
The Estonia–Russia border is the international border between the Republic of Estonia ( EU and NATO member) and the Russian Federation ( CIS member). The border is long. It emerged during World War I, in 1918, as Estonia declared its independence from the then warring Russian and German Empires. The border goes mostly along the national, administrative and ethnic boundaries that have gradually formed since the 13th century. The exact location of the border was a subject of Estonian–Russian dispute that was resolved with the signing of the Border Agreement, but neither Russia nor Estonia have completed its ratification yet. It is an external border of the European Union. History Origins of the border Until the 13th century no strict borders existed between the Slavic and Finnic peoples that populated north-eastern Eurasia. Their mutual relationships relied on the military and dynastic alliances, tributes and religious proselytism, occasionally interrupted by m ...
