Sochi travel guide
Russia's Summer Capital
Called the "Summer Capital of Russia," the busy resort town of Sochi is best known as the host of the 2014 Winter Olympics. Located on the Black Sea coastline, the city entices nearly four million visitors annually with its subtropical climate, sandy beaches, lively nightlife, and proximity to a network of ski slopes and hiking trails. Long the favorite haunt of Russia's political elite, Sochi advertises itself as the hub of the "Russian Riviera," offering warm summers and mild winters. Venture farther away from the coastline to discover the city's sprawling parks, tranquil places that offer shady canopies of old magnolia and cypress trees.
