The first casino in Sochi's designated gambling zone, on the Russian Black Sea coast, held its official opening on 5 January, according to Russian Government-owned media sources, following the pre-opening of the parlour on 24 December.
"Sochi Casino and Resort is a project with a unique concept for Russia in the spirit of the best casinos of Las Vegas," said the operators, Domain LLC, in a statement.
"[It] is the first entertainment complex of a global scale located on the territory of the year-round mountain resort Gorky Gorod."
Set in a reconstructed Olympic media centre, the redevelopment was carried out by US-based Steelman Parters, who have previously managed projects in both Las Vegas and Macau.
