With a capacity for 51,726 fans, the 'Colossus of Wonders' is not only famous for its vibrant atmosphere during matches but also for its rich history. It was designed by the acclaimed architect Pedro Ramírez Vázquez and was a crucial stage for two world football championships, in 1970 and 1986. Its most recent renovation in 2015 gave it a spectacular ETFE facade, the first of its kind in Latin America, cementing it as a landmark of modernity and football tradition.
