Western media was parroting abt how expensive the 2014 Sochi Olympics were, ignoring the fact that Sochi was literally rebuilt. We are talking about highways and railway, sewers . Basically brand new infrastructure.
Olympics are expensive and a financial drain to the host country. The money required to construct a venue is paid by regular human beings for the benefit of very few. The Olympics is a money grab that is scheduled to occur every four years, well... every two years -per winter and summer event- to vacuum money from the hard working populous. There's lots of money made/stolen by means of selling cheap tchotchkes. Think of the billions of people on the planet and how many items will be manufactured and sold by only a handful of greedy bipeds. By means of indentured labor in third world countries. Mega yachts exist due to trickle up economics by means of consumption my many to benefit very very few. The greedy. The hoarders. The oppressive.
@TheSSebi You see everything in this world has + & - side because this is not heaven, by this video you can see that Russian Media is truly honest about their place not only + side, but also what's - too they explained it to public, anyway that is one of a good example of promoting something...
Just gotta say that the reason the new Adler-Krasnaya Polyana connection was so incredibly expensive is that it involved loads of tunnels and bridges, and a railroad that went along with it. So it looks crazily costly per kilometer, but it's not just any kind of road either.
Great! this is an real alternative to Swiss and Austrian resorts. I would love to go skiing there. And again with Family. Wonderful video. I enjoyed it very much! ♥️
Yeah, Sochi is nice and has good infrastructure. As a poor student a prefer Elbrus for skiing because it cheaper, to the east of Sochi, far from the sea
Slava the Russian government needs to recognize you for all your efforts in increasing tourist inflows into the country. Your videos showcase so many unknown gems in the country. I really enjoy your videos. Much love.🙏🏾
Who do you think you should be afraid of? Russia is not the new America where professors are fired in disgrace for free speech that does not appeal to adherents of racial superiority or BLM.
Awesome! I'd love to visit Sochi, and the Olympics there were outstanding!! What an amazing place, so beautiful. Hard to believe all of that beauty is all in one place, thanks for sharing!
@@RussianPlus yep, your channel is great. The vlogger NRKFZ, or something like that, went to Sochi this year too, but he presented nothing like you did.

But he's probably 20 years younger than you and his immaturity shows.

Super video. So much to see in 25 minutes. Awesome drone shots. The whole region has so much to offer. There are not many places in the world like it. I'm neither a beach bum or a skier. But i would lllove to cruise and hike around when the mountains are green. I defo would love to visit.
Such an awesome channel! As someone from upstate New York, it's amazing to get to see so many parts of the world, and Russia, of which my fellow citizens only hear of or see from the news.
By the way, It is easy for us, Volgograd citizen, to navigate in Sochi, because our cities look similar - they are both so long and narrow, Sochi is stretched along the seacoast, Volgograd is stretched along the bank of the river Volga 😀
I saw your City from the plane when we were going back. The river was covered in ice. I knew it was Volgograd because there was a big stadium by the river
@@RussianPlus the locals used to joke that one day It would fall down and swim away along the river Volga 😀😄 Oh, It is still very cold here, everything is covered witth ice... I wish I could go to Sochi either 😊💙
I love watching your videos of you and your family, they have such a wholesome vibe ha they make me want to be a better more well rounded person. I have started learning Spanish and Russian and going outside to do more activities because of your videos so far. Love to you and your family!
Thanks for this amazing video. This showed us aside we haven't seen before. We were so used to seeing only the beach waterfront but to see all the things you can do including a tea farm, the petting zoo, and all the exciting places in town and the great skiing shots. You do a great job keep up the great work
Hey, WOW, this Sochi video quality and views are much more attractive than your last Sochi video. Keep up the good work. Can you please make video of Crimea? Thanks. ❤️from🇬🇧
This is really a “Gasprom” ski resort if you have a giant heated outdoor swimming pool. And the slopes are good quality, seeiously, I grew up in a Swiss ski resort there is not much difference to be seen.
@@RussianPlus == Для нормального катания надо съездить хотя бы на ледники (3-тысячники) Австрии. Да и покультурней там всё организовано. Хотя горы Кавказа (Эльбрус, Чегет, Домбай), ясен перец, посуровей и поэффектней Альп смотрятся.
Sochi is a very pleasant place having been there in September 2018. I went up to the ski resort and to the top of the peak too. No snow obviously but I agree the roads were very good. You missed out Stalin's dacha which is also worth a visit. As for your comment about the queues for the ski lift at the lower slopes that is common in most European resorts, but as you say a ski pass would normally cover the entire valley and public transport would connect all the resorts. Any skier worth his or her salt would want to try all the locations. But in my opinion if you want really picturesque skiing you cannot beat Austria. The pistes there run through alpine forests. They are incredibly beautiful. And they really know how to apres-ski too.
Hello from Japan. Sochi is known to us because the winter olympic games were held there. Skiing had gotten a popularity here 30 years before but not any more now. I was surprised dried persimmons were sold at the market. I thought they were eaten by us only. Can you make green tea with leaves of the tea plantation?
The subtropical zone on the territory of Russia is located in a narrow strip on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus (Sochi) and on the southern coast of the Crimea. These places are very few for beach holidays of people in the largest country in the world during the pandemic. A shortage generates an increase in prices.
I love the way you document all your trips. Keep it up. I will like to do that in future but I will definitely like to start with my country and continent before venturing out the continent.
Great video - as usual! I hope most viewers are watching on a large tv to get the benefit of you filming in 4K. It is much appreciated 👍 Also Vika seems to be quite an athlete 😊
Hi there! What an awesome video, dude! Love Adler and Polyana! I love staying at Adler by the sea. Madison is nice. We usually daily travel to Polyana. I love the area and the ride there. Awesome!
Oh, SOCHI! 💙😍 The place I love so much! Every time I go there, I return back full of energy, happy and fresh. Thank you for this amazing VIDEO! 😊 I've seen so many places where we used to walk with my children! Wow, you all can ski so well! As for me, I tried It only once, but I'm scared to do It 😀 I do not think that this kind of entertainment is for me, I like walking and sitting in front of the sea instead 😀 By the way, when we go to Sochi with my kids, we never spend much money there. First of all, we do It not during official holidays or the most popular times, when most tourists come - for example, in November, in March and April... You can't ski, but the prices in the hotels are much lower. And there are less people in the streets.
Thanks 👍 I'm not a good skier. Grisha was wearing the GoPro camera:) I agree Sochi is a nice place. Last time I was there was in November and it was empty. The beach season ended and the skiing season had not started:) and it was still warm. Good to hear from you!
What do you think, will you make a video about Krasnoyarks and Irkutsk? These are my favourite cities, although I have never been to Russia. I think the siberian cities in summer are very cozy. Greetings from Hungary!
Worth waiting. Never knew you had experience in skiing, yah obviously you do have. I never been to snowy place, so in love with it. By the way, well done Slava.
