杭州奥体中心体育馆

Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre Gymnasium stands at 2657 Bo'ao Road in Xiaoshan District, inside the Hangzhou Olympic Expo City on the south bank of the Qiantang River, alongside the main stadium known as the Big Lotus and the tennis centre nicknamed the Little Lotus. The gymnasium and the aquatics centre are built as one connected structure, the pair called the Butterfly, occupying 22.79 hectares with a combined gross floor area of 397,000 sqm; the gymnasium alone accounts for about 74,500 sqm. It seats 18,000 spectators through 15,000 fixed and 3,000 retractable places, and was the first venue in Zhejiang able to switch between ice and basketball configurations, as well as the only indoor ten-thousand-seat arena in the city. Basketball at the 2023 Asian Games was played here, the BWF World Tour Finals have been staged here for four straight editions from 2023 to 2026, and CBA finals plus concerts by Jacky Cheung, A-Mei and Mayday have filled the hall. Designed by Hu Yue Studio of the Beijing Institute of Architectural Design, the shell consumed 25,000 tonnes of steel in more than 20,000 components; the aquatics wing by the river rises 35 m and the gymnasium 45 m, the streamlined mass reading as a pair of spreading wings from above. Since the Games the complex has opened fully to the public and added commercial operations, repositioning it as an urban sports, entertainment, retail and lifestyle destination. Metro Line 6 stops at Expo Centre station, about 220 m from exit B2, while Lines 6 and 7 serve Olympic Sports Centre station.
