Shizuoka, Japan
Stadium Ecopa
Venue information
The circular stadium is near the coastal city of Shizuoka, which
is dominated by its massive neighbor Mount Fuji, Japan's highest
and holiest mountain. Split into two tiers and covered by a Teflon
roof, Stadium Ecopa -- an abbreviation of Ecology Park -- uses
recycled rainwater to water the natural turf pitch. More than 5,500
of the stadium's seats can be moved onto the track for a closer
view of the field.
The stadium, which has been used primarily for international
youth soccer tournaments and track and field events, is located 52
kilometers (32 miles) from the center of Shizuoka City.
