National and international sports games, national meetings, mass gymnastics and other events have been splendidly held at this stadium over the past scores of years.
The Pyongyang Indoor Stadium with a peculiar architectural style was built under the guidance of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il in the 1970s.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un indicated the orientation and ways for wonderfully transforming the stadium in conformity with the requirements of the times. In September 2013, he went round different parts of the reconstructed stadium for hours and gave precious teachings on its management and operation.
