All About Sochi Park
Amusement rides are a very cool entertainment not only for children but also for parents. While little ones can enjoy bright swings, an adult will clearly want to feel an adrenaline rush at least once by riding a high roller coaster. And since American ones are hardly accessible to us, we have a great park “at home” where you can ride very cool (in every sense) Russian carousels.

The main concept was based on the idea of educating visitors, telling them about Russia’s cultural and historical richness. Therefore, the territory was divided into six zones, called lands, each with a unique name and purpose: Land of Heroes, Enchanted Forest, Sea Kingdom, Land of Science and Fantasy, Medvedia, Sea Kingdom.
