Bolshoy Ice Dome
The shell-shaped Bolshoy Ice Dome is a prominent arena in Sochi's coastal Olympic Park. You can view its exterior while walking the precinct; indoor access depends on events.
Include Bolshoy on an Olympic Park walk for its distinctive curved roof and the chance to see how a major sports venue sits within the 2014 coastal cluster. The exterior is the dependable visual payoff. If you want to go inside, make an event the reason for the visit and arrange the appropriate ticket separately; the park's open paths do not imply arena entry.
