The biggest resort town on what's called the "Russian Riviera," Sochi is preparing to step onto the world stage as the host of the 2014 Winter Olympics. Somewhat ironically, Sochi is really quite temperate for most of the year, with its Black Sea waters warm and swimmable well into October. The Arboretum and Riviera Park are among the city’s most popular destinations. Serving as a beautiful backdrop for Sochi are the Caucasus Mountains, home to the nearby snow skiing resort of Krasnaya Polyana.

The ferris wheel on Mount Akhun in Sochi is located at an altitude of 701 meters above sea level. Such a mark reaches the highest point of the attraction on Mount Akhun. The attraction is located just a few meters from the tower Akhun and became the highest point of view of the panorama of the city. From the top you have a magnificent view of the sea, the center of Sochi, the Imerytinsky Valley and the Olympic venues, as well as the mountains of the Main Caucasian Range.

The largest subtropical park in Russia contains more than 30 acres of stunning natural beauty.
The old botanical park consists of an upper and lower park, connected by an underground passage. You can buy a ticket either to both sides for 350 rubles, or only to the small lower one. The upper area is large and interesting. There are many beautiful old park buildings, a suspension bridge and a replica of a dolmen, a pen with ostriches and peacocks, a parrot, an artificial low waterfall with a cave, and a sakura garden. Lots of flower beds with tulips. A pleasant place for leisurely walks. The lower park is smaller in area, with lakes in which swans, ducks and pelicans swim. There is a small bamboo grove. You can get around in 15-20 minutes of leisurely pace. Measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19: thermometry at the entrance, the requirement to maintain social distance, wear a mask.

This popular state reserve offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the magnificent West Caucasus mountains.
We've visited the mountain cluster by cable car and the ride was so adventurous and great. Don't miss this cable car ride if you visit Krasnaya Poliyana. Plus while you are going up to the mountains you'll see a breathtaking Panasonic view of Caucasus mountains.
