★★★★★3 years agoWe visited the museum and the stadium, we visited the VIP rooms of the stadium, there is a lot to do there. You can play on huge baby-foot, have a gym session to see your abilities in cardio and other available multi-player games. There is a shop to buy all kinds of things related to sports. We stayed there more than 4 hours to visit the whole place. At the end we even took pictures with the photo booth board. We saw all the Olympic torches. It's a really cool place to visit for all sports fans. I recommend 100% and the prices are very reasonable.
