26 Stadiums Where Art and Architecture Collide in Spectacular Fashion

18. Sapporo Dome, Japan: The Transforming Technological Marvel

Home to both baseball and soccer teams, Sapporo Dome achieves the impossible: perfect conditions for both sports through incredible engineering. Its most jaw-dropping feature is the retractable grass soccer pitch, which hovers on a cushion of air and slides outside the dome for natural sunlight when not in use, swapping places with an artificial baseball field stored inside. This futuristic "hovering pitch system," combined with its sleek, silver dome structure, makes Sapporo Dome a globally renowned icon of adaptability and advanced stadium technology.
