My Dinh National Stadium
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mỹ Đình National Stadium in Hanoi, Vietnam has a capacity of 40,000 seats and is the centerpiece of Vietnam's National Sports Complex. It was officially opened in September 2003 and was the main venue for the Southeast Asian Games later that year, hosting the opening and closing ceremony as well as the men's football and athletics events.
Located in Tu Liem District, 12 kilometres north-west of central Hanoi, the 40,000-seat stadium is the biggest in the country and was built at a cost of US$53 million. Arched roofs cover the grandstands on the east and west sides of the arena, providing shelter for half of the seats.
The area provides excellent training facilities for the teams with two football training grounds conveniently located next to the stadium.
