The 2014 Winter Olympics and Paralympics venues are divided between two "clusters" located in and around Sochi, Russia.

## Venues
### Coastal Cluster

Located in the Adler City District of Sochi, Imeretinsky Valley, on the Black Sea, the Olympic Park houses the main Olympic Stadium used for the Games' ceremonies, and venues for indoor sports such as hockey, figure skating, curling, and speed skating. It also houses training facilities, the Olympic Village, the international broadcasting centre, and other amenities. The park is designed so that all of the venues are accessible within walking distance of each other. The venues are situated around a water basin containing a fountain known as "The Waters of the Olympic Park"; designed by California-based WET (which also designed the cauldron for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City), the fountain measures 5.3 meters in diameter with a capacity of about 700,000 gallons of water, featuring more than 250 nozzles and jet systems that can create fog and choreographed water displays set to music.

### The Olympic Village

The Sochi 2014 Olympic Village was a comprehensive setup, consisting of three distinct "villages" designed to accommodate athletes and delegates for the Winter Olympics: Usadba Coastal Olympic Village in the coastal cluster, Mountain Olympic Village and Sloboda Endurance Village in the mountain cluster.
The Usadba Coastal Olympic Village, located on the Black Sea coast in the Imereti Lowlands, consisted of 47 buildings covering 72 hectares. This village had the capacity to host up to 2,000 athletes and delegates. During the Olympic Winter Games, it housed athletes competing in hockey, curling, figure skating, speed skating, and short track. Yelena Isinbaeva served as the "mayor" of this village, and its mascot was the Polar Bear.
The Mountain Olympic Village was the largest of the three, able to accommodate up to 3,000 athletes and delegates. It was home to athletes participating in alpine skiing, bobsleigh, freestyle, luge, Nordic combined, skeleton, ski jumping, and snowboarding. This village also featured the International Zone for interactions between athletes, media representatives, dignitaries, and visitors. It was conveniently located near the Rosa Khutor cable car stations. The village's mayor was Svetlana Zhurova and its mascot was the Leopard.
Sloboda Endurance Village, situated near the cross-country skiing and biathlon competition complex, was designed to provide accommodation for up to 1,100 athletes in cross-country skiing and biathlon, along with delegation members. Maxim Chudov was appointed as the mayor, and the village's mascot was the Hare.
In total, the Olympic Village had the capacity to house up to 6,000 athletes from 85 nations. The construction of the Olympic Village was undertaken by Basic Element, with Deputy CEO Andrey Elinson being in charge for the whole development. For his "significant contribution to the preparation and conduct of the 2014 Winter Olympics and Paralympics in Sochi", Elinson was awarded the Order of Friendship by the President of the Russian Federation in December 2014. The total cost of Sochi 2014 Olympic village's construction was $778M
