FC Seoul-World Cup Stadium

A few weeks ago I went to a soccer game at World Cup Stadium. FC Seoul won, so that was exciting. Mostly, though, I would say World Cup Stadium is noteworthy for the beautiful bits of nature that surround it.

The main entrance to World Cup Stadium.


It's really big. They said that there were 45,000 people there that day and it didn't seem particularly full.



The FC Seoul fan section. There were many fireworks. I feel like only in Korea is it considered reasonable to bring fireworks into soccer stadiums.



Fall!



More fall!



Getting to World Cup Stadium Park requires that you climb any number of stairs. But once you get to the top it looks just like the midwest at night! It was a markedly weird experience for me.
