Fisht Olympic Stadium, Olympic Stadium in Sochi, Russia.

The Fisht Olympic Stadium stands between the Black Sea coast and the Caucasus Mountains, featuring a semi-transparent polycarbonate roof that reflects sunlight.

The stadium construction started in 2009 and reached completion in 2013, becoming the center stage for the 2014 Winter Olympics opening ceremonies.

The stadium bears the name of Mount Fisht, a peak in the western Caucasus range that holds deep meaning in local geography.

The facility maintains a capacity of 25,000 spectators and connects to Sochi through regular bus services and suburban electric trains.

The stadium transformed from an enclosed structure to an open-air venue in 2016 through extensive engineering modifications for future sporting events.
