Shanghai stadium is situated in Xujiahui
district near St. Ignatius Cathedral, displaying a fantastically
modern and slightly surreal construction. The roof of
the building resembles snow-capped peaks on a mountain
range and is shaped like a saddle! The stadium accommodates
up to 80,000 people and has hosted many nation wide and
international tournaments.
This is a great building to look at to even if you are
not interested in sports! There are restaurants and bars
in the stadium including China's first "Boxing Pub"
where you can buy a drink and take part in a boxing match
Radisson Plaza Xing Guo Hotel Shanghai in a single night.
Bungee jumping activities are also available from the
stadium roof!
