The Adler railway station is located in an L-shaped building, built in a modern style a la «glass and steel» not far from the airport in Adler, literally a hundred meters from the sea. The architect of the station conceived so that when leaving the train, passengers would first go up the escalators and stairs to the fourth floor of the building, from where they have a breathtaking view of the sea. Moreover, from the same floor there is an exit to an open passage, through which you get to the other side of the piece of iron, and on the way you get a lot of emotions from meeting the sea. Such a turn of events makes a particularly strong impression on those who have never seen the sea in their life, or vice versa, have long missed it..

Railway station Adler
The railway station building in Adler consists of five floors, on which I quickly ran and took pictures. All entrances are guarded like at the airport: they send luggage through x-rays and make them pull everything out of their pockets. I left my phone in my pockets and did not remove the belt with a metal buckle - the frame did not work.
- 5th floor: a half-floor food court, a waiting area with seating and many closed, apparently unused rooms.
- 4th floor: arrivals area, suburban train ticket offices, entrance turnstiles, souvenir shops, clothing and grocery stores, two cafeterias, ATMs, toilets, escalators to the city and direct access to the passage that goes over the road and leads to the sea.
- The 3rd and 2nd floors are probably administrative, they can be seen from the escalator, but there is no stop on them and you go down immediately to the 1st floor.
- 1st floor: exits to the street on the side of the sea and the city, long-distance ticket offices and a rack for charging devices
In general, the Adler station is an ordinary station of the Russian railways. In the toilets it smells, they make shitty coffee, the staff loudly and obscenely discusses their family affairs, believing that the glass counter drowns out their conversation, at the exit - the attack of taxi drivers and the entire area around the station is technogenic in nature, solid asphalt, concrete, steel and wires. The logic of moving around the station is not entirely clear, especially in terms of arrival - you have to drag your luggage upstairs. Nice but impractical.

For those traveling in the Sochi direction by train, the Adler station will be next after Sochi, Matsesta and Khosta. Adler is the terminal station of this line. If you have to go further to Krasnaya Polyana, then you need to change to Swallow (see the schedule in the photo, but it is better to check it on the website, it will suddenly change). Accordingly, those who travel from Krasnaya Polyana can get to Adler station on the same Swallow.
