Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Park and garden
Sochi Arboretum
The arboretum’s planting, paths and viewpoints reveal a designed botanical landscape. Tree silhouettes and changing perspectives invite walking through the park without depending on the cable car operating.
Architectural heritage
Sochi Marine Station
The maritime terminal combines an arcaded facade with a tall spire by the water. Its architecture marks the harbourfront without implying that a cruise departure is available.
Park and garden
Riviera Park
Riviera Park’s paths, trees and landscaping create an urban walking space. The photographed fountain view captures one park setting; events and operating facilities follow separate schedules.
Natural landscape
Mount Akhoun
Mount Akhun’s tower is an architectural landmark in Sochi’s upland landscape. Views of the mountain and tower are distinct from access to the platform, whose conditions need checking with the park.
