New Delhi: Hamburg is Germany's second-largest city and the country's gateway to the world.
UEFA has awarded the FIFA World Cup Stadium Hamburg five stars for its excellent facilities.
Home to Bundesliga club Hamburger SV, the new Hamburg Stadium, the AOL Arena, hosted its first international match on September 2, 2000 between Germany and Greece.
The waterlogged semi-final between Poland and West Germany in the 1974 World Cup and Muhammad Ali vs Karl Mildenberger bout in 1966 are some of the historic sporting events played on this ground.
FIFA World Cup Stadium Hamburg has an impressive architecture and a very unique ambiance and has a capacity of 50,000.
Worth seeing is the exclusive VIP-Area of the Arena, which enables 2,500 visitors to stay by their own in their special restaurant.
The Stadium will host the June 10 Argentina vs Côte d'lvoire, June 15 Costa Rica vs Ecuador, June 19 Saudi Arabia vs Ukraine and June 22 Czech Republic vs Italy matches.
In the knock out stage it will be the host to a Quarter-final match on June 30.
