GUATEMALA CITY, July 4 (Xinhua) -- The Russian city of Sochi, in Krasnadar province, Wednesday won the right to host the 2014 Winter Olympics, at the 119th International Olympic Committee's assembly.

The city is between the snow-capped Caucasus Mountains and the Black Sea, with an estimated population of 400,000 people.

It will be the first time that the country will host the Winter Games, although it did host the Summer Games in 1980.

The city's 10.7-billion-U.S.-dollar bid is the largest in the Games, although all the facilities planned for use have already been built.

The Games will run from Feb. 7 to 23 of 2014.
