Important to know: more details
The Sochi Seaport is the city's central point, not geographically but conceptually. From here, you can embark on a boat trip with fishing, and it's also a great place for hiking in the shade of palm trees, cedars, and a cherry orchard.
The building of the Marine Station was built in 1955 and is similar to the Main Admiralty building located on the banks of the Neva River.
One scene from the popular Soviet film "The Diamond Arm" was filmed on the pier of the Marine Station. The Gorbunkov family sculpture is located near the port.
Not far from the port is the Sochi Lighthouse. Its light is visible at sea for 32 kilometers. The Sochi Lighthouse has been helping sailors stay on course for almost 125 years—since 1890!
The Olympic Park was built from scratch. Previously, it was swampland and the local residents' vegetable gardens, with a cemetery located nearby. The swamps were drained, the gardeners were compensated (quite a substantial amount), and the cemetery remained nearby.
During the Olympics, the park hosted figure skating, speed skating, hockey, short track, and curling competitions. The park also hosted the grand opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games, watched by the entire world. Today, it hosts such high-profile events as Formula 1, celebrity performances, football matches, and hockey tournaments.
But even those not particularly interested in sporting events and the Olympic past still have plenty to see in the Olympic Park—there's a spectacular light and music fountain show. The complex also boasts several museums, and you can drive a race car, play curling, go-karting, or ice skate.
From here, you can see the snow-capped peaks of the Caucasus Mountains, the Black Sea, Abkhazia, and even the Turkish coast. The word "Akhun" means "elevation" or "hill" in Abkhaz. In 1936, Joseph Stalin climbed the mountain and marveled at its beauty. He then ordered the improvement of the site: the construction of a road to Akhun and an observation tower. The road to the Akhun tower was built by Gulag prisoners in 117 days.
The Ordzhonikidze Sanatorium, opened in 1937, was once one of the city's most grandiose sanatoriums. The feature film "Old Man Hottabych" was filmed here. In 2016, the sanatorium opened its doors to visitors for the last time, and then closed and fell into disrepair. The cost of reconstruction was estimated at approximately 22 billion rubles, so the complex is still undergoing restoration.

According to legend, the gods punished the giant for giving fire to humans and chained him to a rock, leaving him to die. But the maiden Agura took pity on Prometheus and brought him water. The gods were angry with the maiden and turned her into a river. This is how the three Agura Falls were formed, which we will see on our way down the mountain.
Legend has it that the cave got its name from the huge number of bats that once lived there. Another theory is that eerie howls and moans once emanated from the depths of the cave. It's also believed that the cave contains passages to a larger cave system that remains unexplored.

The route is equipped with wooden steps. Of the 33 waterfalls, 17 are open to tourists. The rest are difficult to access, but we can get to them if we just know the paths!
Legend has it that a giant lived in these parts who disliked people and did everything he could to hinder them. One day, a young man named Guch, the heir to the Mugu clan, placed barrels where the giant liked to pass. When the giant approached the barrels, a swarm of wild bees descended upon him. The giant ran 33 steps up the mountain, so much so that his heavy feet created steps in the mountain. At the summit, Guch stood with a sword and struck him down with a single blow. The giant fell, breaking the rock, and a stream flowed from the fissure, rushing down the 33 steps.
The total duration of the walk along the waterfalls is 600-1000 meters.
Several years ago, lightning struck the tree, splitting it in two. To save this local landmark, it was bound with chains, and the crack was sealed with cement. The tree still stands. According to legend, if you press your back against the tree and stand for a few minutes, you can receive a particle of the tree's energy, which will protect you from misfortune and illness. If you drop a coin into the tree's hollow, your wish will certainly come true.
