With less than 100 days remaining before the start of the 2014 Winter Olympics, officials and workers in Sochi, Russia, are scrambling to complete the city's transformation into a modern Olympic venue.

Bosnia-Herzegovina's war of the early 1990s, followed by years of neglect, left its 1984 Olympic sites decaying and forgotten. (Photos by Dado Ruvic, Reuters)
