For Prague to host an Olympic Games, it needs some more sports venues.

The Czech Republic has a lack of large stadia and other important Olympic sports infrastructure. If Prague is hto host an Olympic Games, three sports centres are to be built:

A velodrome for cyclists in Prague or Brno.

A swimming stadium that is constructed from the existing Prague-Sutka Aquapark. I found a swimming venue named "Plavecky Stadion Podoli" on Worldstadiums.com. It is unknown if this venue is part of the Prague-Sutka Aquapark.

The major Olympic Complex that is to be built on the outskirts of Prague in Litnany.

Seeing as the Czech Republic is a landlocked country, the yachting events would be in Lipno.

The Rowing and Canoeing would be in Racice, and slalom would be held in Troja.

Some stadiums already in place are the Sazka Arena, and the T-Mobil Arena.

There are plans to rebuild the area around the Strahov Stadion as an Olympic Village, though I do not know what the site itself would be used for.

Interesting how they have the cutaway section of the roof for the cauldron.

Someone must be reading GamesBids!! :lol:

Too bad these plans will never bear fruition.

GBForums have been boring lately... Miss the good discussions and points. The nice follow-ups on buildings and so on...
Now we have only chat with trolls or weeks without the old good boys posting...
So I'm giving a break, but I'll be back soon. Meanwhile I'll be around in SkyScrapercity, where no trolling and city vs. city is allowed.

I like the venues.
Going foward to Toronto at the Pan American Games and Pyeong Chang Winter Olympic Games.
