The venue is reputed for details. The grass is a variety which grows in cold climates, suiting the winter in northeast China. To ensure sufficient indoor light, the stadium's roof has been covered with sunlight panels and glasses. The spectator-friendly facility, the large display screens at the two stands, measures 192 square meters each. The design of the VIP lounge puts privacy and comfort first.
