Sochi Park celebrated its grand opening in 2012. The theme park combines state-of-the-art technology with art, history and folklore, offering a wide range of attractions reflecting milestones in the nation’s history, as well as thematic areas and live shows inspired by fairy tales. The park’s first 12 attractions are divided into five thematic areas, including ”Avenue of Fire”, with a lake and various restaurants and souvenir shops; ”Land of Bogatyr,” where local heroes live;” The Enchanted Forest, which features fairies from local folklore; the nature-inspired ”ECO-Village”; and the interactive ”Land of Science and Fiction”.
