Let's take a tour around these eight modern marvels. We're exploring how they were made, what they cost, and the unbelievable story behind each. <br /><br />To start us of is the great KHALIFA INTERNATIONAL STADIUM.<br /><br />Khalifa International Stadium has hosted a long list of momentous sporting events since its inauguration in 1976. In fact, rarely is football or athletics mentioned in Qatar without referring to this venue. Naturally, the stadium received a complete refit for the FIFA World Cup 2022™ as a reward for its long-standing service. On reopening in May 2017, it played host to the Amir Cup Final – the club football event close to the hearts of all Qataris. <br /><br />The stadium’s magnificent dual arches were always its most recognizable features. These remain intact – but now feature a wide canopy stretched out below them. This complements the stadium's cooling system to maintain a comfortable temperature for players and fans alike. <br /><br />The new tier added 12,000 seats, while digital lighting and a modern façade brought new sparkle to an old friend. Having previously staged the Arabian Gulf Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup™ and IAAF World Athletics Championships, this venue is ready to excite the world as part of the greatest football show on earth. <br /><br />Thanks for Watching: The 8 Amazing World Cup 2022 Qatar Stadiums<br /><br /><br />
