There are so many entertainments on the territory of Greater Sochi! Numerous parks, dolphinariums, ski slopes, amusement parks and even a unique mountain water park. Rosa Khutor is a resort that has been very popular lately, and at any time of the year. So the presence of such an entertainment place as a water park here makes it even more attractive.
The social and cultural center "Galaktika" was opened in December 2013. On hisThe territory has a variety of entertainment, thanks to which the rest in the mountains will be unforgettable. Billiards, bowling, a cinema, a kids club, an ice arena, all kinds of shops, bars and restaurants and, of course, a water park (Rosa Khutor) are waiting for the guests of the center.

The water amusement park operates daily from 10 am to 11 pm. The air temperature in it is maintained in the region of 29-31 degrees Celsius, water - from 28 to 32 degrees.
The territory of the water park occupies a large part of the first floor of the Galaktika entertainment center. It is divided into two different zones. One of them is located under the roof of the building and offers guests exciting rides from the slides. The second zone is located right on the street and gives everyone magnificent panoramas of the mountains.
Waterpark (Rosa Khutor) in its covered part offers guests four slides. Two of them will appeal to lovers of quieter descents, but the rest will certainly remain in the memory of extreme sportsmen for a long time. After all, the local "Black Hole" and "Kamikaze" will give the daredevils a lot of sharp turns, passable at very high speed.

Opinions of visitors about the water park
Many tourists who come to rest not only in Krasnaya Polyana, but also in Greater Sochi itself, definitely try to visit the water park in the Galaktika center. All this is due to the fact that vacationers speak positively about him.
The visitors are especially amazed by the outdoor pools, where you can admire the snow-covered or green mountain ranges. The cost of tickets also satisfies guests, because it is quite acceptable.
But the number of slides for riding adults disappoints some tourists. If there were more of them here, then all the reviews about this place would surely be enthusiastic.
