The Razdolnaya River crosses the territory of the district. Despite the high density of the population, close location to the large city, and the developed road network, Nadezhdinsky District boasts the unique nature attractions such as the yew (Taxus cuspidata) grove with an area of 400,000 square meters (4,300,000 sq ft), and Korean pine forests.
The district was established in 1937.
The favorable climatic conditions and closeness to Vladivostok (the administrative center of the krai) predetermined the district's specialization. There are seven agricultural enterprises which provide Vladivostok with meat, milk, eggs, vegetables, and potatoes. Mink, foxes, , and deer are bred in the district.
