๐ŸŒ…The First Ministerial Conference of the #RussiaAfrica Partnership Forum is to take place on 9-11 November in Russiaโ€™s Sochi. This southern coastal city is beautiful at any time of the year and gives travellers unforgettable experiences. For those who will participate in the conference we reveal how to spend 3 perfect days in #Sochi.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Day 1
Visit the Sochi Arboretum. It is interesting not only for hundreds of species of subtropical trees and plants. It is also an original garden and park complex, where you can ride a cable car to the upper station, observe the mountains and the sea.
Take a taxi or a carsharing service (they are everywhere in the city, it's very convenient!) and head to Stalin's dacha in Matsesta, one of Sochi's districts.
Have a dinner at a restaurant on the seafront, listen to street musicians and go dancing after a glass (or two) of local sparkling wine.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Day 2
Take a walk to the seafront. Admire the Marine Station building in the Soviet art deco style. Stroll on the promenade along the sea, popping into mini cafes and stores.
Sochi often hosts various other sporting events, as well: marathons, triathlons, tennis tournaments and many more. Attend a soccer match at the Fisht Olympic Stadium, where the 2018 FIFA World Cup was also held, or watch an ice hockey game at the neighboring Bolshoy Ice Dome.
Visit Sochi Park and take a ride on the amusement rides and Ferris wheel.
From 7 pm to 8 pm, a spectacular performance is waiting for you by the Olympic flame โ€“ the Singing Fountain Show.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Day 3
Head to the mountains. You can get there by train, bus, taxi or carsharing, as there are convenient parking lots even high up in the mountains.
Buy a ticket and ride to the top of Rosa Peak (2,320 meters). Take a swing over the abyss, ride chairlifts to waterfalls or just enjoy the view of the Caucasus Range. Remember to dress warmer, as, even in summer, it's quite windy and cool up there.
In the evening, you can check out the Krasnaya Polyana Casino. There are only a few authorized gambling zones in Russia and this is one of them.
