Tourist
places in Gelsenkirchen:
1)Veltins-Arena:
The
stadium is one of the most technically advanced in Europe with its
combination of retractable roof, slide-out pitch, and movable South
Stand.The area around the Veltins-Arena is of little interest in
terms of entertainment, though there are a Multiplex cinema and some
food outlets on the complex that also include the remains of the old
Parkstadion.
The
stadium was one of the venues for the 2006 World Cup. However,
because FIFA controls all sponsorship associated with its tournaments
(including that of competition venues), the arena was called FIFA
World Cup Stadium Gelsenkirchen during the
World Cup.There are two hotels in the close vicinity of the stadium: the Courtyard by Marriott comes in the high-end category, while the Hotel Arena is for those with a more modest budget.
