The story of the Olympic Park
For the 2014 Winter Olympics, Russia built a whole new coastal cluster on the Imereti Lowland near Adler, where all the ice events took place. The stadiums stand around the Olympic cauldron, still lit on special occasions.
Fisht Stadium, used for the opening ceremony and later for the 2018 football World Cup, sits beside the Bolshoi Ice Dome and the Iceberg skating palace. Next door is Sochi Park, a theme park based on Russian fairy tales.
