For a long time I was going to visit the Olympic Park in Sochi. Immediately wanted after the Olympics, but everything did not work out. But better late than never. If you find yourself in those places, I recommend to go. AND just a day you can walk on the territory and look at the outlandish buildings, and in the evening come specially to listen to the singing fountain. Like me I understood that the local people go there, as they are now walking in a regular city park. Who on the rollers / bike ride, someone with a child for a walk, someone buy (in the warm season). It’s convenient, probably, to live near there is always where to air.

Olympic Park
Fair. Olympic Park made a good impression. Yes, You can talk about politics, the need for the Olympics, etc., but I suggest not to go beyond the sights and now consider this object in this particular way. So, it looks unusually. Modern. That is, for sights really rolls, at least one-time.
Well, if you live in Sochi or Adler, then you can still come here leisure time (walking, rollerblades, bicycles, beach), territory allows Especially, I think, there is a expanse of rollers, where else is this An area with a flat surface will get in the vicinity. Cyclists Still, it is not so important. Well, the beach is good, though traditionally stony: few people, the embankment is long and refined, clean sea.
Look at the photos, you will understand everything yourself. The only thing that strained – this is a mesh fence. He is there everywhere, everything is fenced, pass can only be in certain places. We did not immediately find the passage to the beach. Guess done for security, but this is inconvenient and Aesthetically terribly not beautiful. The bigger the fence looks temporary (and it is really not stationary), from which it is created impression of some work, construction.

Map and parking
The point on my map is in the place of free parking. I asked, this parking is always free and its area Pretty big. On the map it may seem that there is far to go center of the Olympic Park, where the singing fountain, but in fact there no more than 15 minutes. At the time of my visit there was definitely another free parking on the waterfront near the Big Sports Palace, but pretty small. Also during some events open access to other parking lots (they are normally closed), but I don’t I know, they are paid or not. You can still get up in the parking lot. Sochi Park.
