Among the many hotels in Sochi, there is one called the Bear Corner, known by all zoomorphic phraseological units. People who do not live up to this hotel involuntarily have a hunch: is the name really an advertising game in contrast? Indeed, in its primary sense, it means a place inaccessible, remote from civilization.
And there is a reason for this. Indeed, there is an almost comic discrepancy between form and content: the non-residential meaning of the name, on the one hand, and the comfort of a four-star hotel, on the other. It is noteworthy that in Slavic vocabulary “bear” is the king of the forest, that is, a space uninhabited by man, and the noun “corner” is associated with a place completely deaf, where it’s difficult to get and it’s almost impossible to return.
Location and climate
However, lexical research in this case is flawed. After all, the thing is in the long-standing name of the area. The hotel complex is located not in the remote taiga, but in the resort city of Sochi, in its Adler district.

That is, it was not the pranksters who came up with the name “Bear Corner” (Sochi). How to get to it is not a secret behind seven seals.
