A real monument of modern architecture is the Olympiastadion, which is located in Montreal. It was still in 1976 on the occasion of the XXI. Olympic summer games. For the last time, the stadium was renovated in 2006. The reconstruction cost 1.4 billion US dollars. Currently the Olympiastadion is the largest in Canada. The dome-shaped roof construction, supported by the high support, makes the exterior of the stadium unique.
The central part of the dome also has an unusual shape and is reminiscent of the giant tortoise tank. This design element also has 'an inner effect' - from the inside, this part of the roof is reminiscent of a cracked layer of ice, which looks particularly realistic when lighting. Today the football matches of the Canadian League take place regularly at the legendary stadium. The stadium can accommodate 65 228 people.
The visitors' record was staged in 2012 on the day of the game with the participation of Los Angeles Galaxy. At that time 60 860 people visited the Olympiastadion. The Olympiastadion is located in the incredibly beautiful area and is surrounded by the extensive park zone. Many followers of the unusual excursions strive to 'see the huge turtle' from the bird's perspective. Vond er Höhe looks just fantastic.
