Google Sightseeing takes you on tour of the world as seen from satellite, using the free Google Earth program, or Google Maps in your web browser. Each weekday your guides James and Alex present new weird and wonderful sights as suggested by readers.
Opened in 1936, renovated in 2004, 68 metres high, with 113 VIP stands, 2 underground garages and 76,000 seats, this is the fantastic looking Olympiastadion in Berlin.
None of it matters tonight of course – not if you’re a French or Italian football fan – as this is where the 2006 World Cup final is being played in just under half an hour.
Really cool stadium though!
Thanks to Giampaolo Bellavite and Bene.
