It is a nice looking stadium and one you are probably proud of. We don't have any stadiums where I live but we do have wood bleachers at the high school football field.
Your stadium probably won't get snow like our football stadium does. LOL
I have missed quite a bit this week, but have now found the time to visit everyone! Your photos are always wonderful and very interesting! Thanks Eki, I hope things are going well for you
It still looks brand new! And so clean. Love the colors.
Looks similar to our Sarawak state stadium.
Nice shot.
USD650 million for 40,000 seat stadium? It must be much more expensive to build in Indonesia than in Malaysia. Malaysia's National Sports Complex at Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur has 100,000 seat stadium, 10-lane Olympic-size swimming pool, 7,000 sq m squash centre of 10 squash courts, 2 hockey stadiums, 10,000 car parks plus all the hi-tec lighting system cost only USD250 million, using mainly Indonesian labour.
