I don't think many stadiums have a main road running under the main stand.

 

Ajax have got one running under the pitch. Makes an ugly stadium look shitter, and adds about half an hour stair-climbing to a trip to the game.

Went there last week. It's unbelievably stunning both on the inside and outside. The location of it is the only downside, right outside the city. If you can, do a tour. They only do guided ones but they are really good.

Wow!

 

Is this anything to do with their coal mining heritage or am i making this up? (i'm sure this is why Newcastle twinned with them, the coal link)

My favourite of the newer stadiums is Boavista's Estadio do Bessa in Porto. Steep stands with the upper tier hanging over the lower (all seats close to the pitch) & no corners which often makes a ground into a boring bowl.
