The stadium in Makapa is located on the equator line

A football stadium located in the northern Brazilian city of Macapá is one of the most unusual sports facilities in the world. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Its uniqueness is related not only to its architecture but also to its location. The stadium's central line runs exactly along the Earth's equator.

For this reason, during the game, teams play in different hemispheres – the northern and southern hemispheres. Although the facility, commissioned in 1990, is known as “Estadio Milton Correa,” locals and football fans call it “Zerão.”

This name is connected to the equator line or the Earth's geographic “zero.” The architects designed the stadium so that the center line of the field precisely crosses the equator.

Being the only stadium of its kind in the world, it attracts great attention from sports fans and tourists. This place is interesting not only for football matches but also from a geographical point of view.

Visitors to the stadium experience the sensation of being in both hemispheres of the Earth simultaneously. Thus, “Zerão” stands out with the uniqueness and distinctiveness of its football field.
