Nepal's national stadium. Currently in construction. Electric environment during games.
It’s in very bad condition... looks like a scene from a war movie... need to give it to Private company to rebuild it.
Nice stadium and many matches can be seen nicely. Some times I felt off the stadium. This place is great and beautiful and views are too awesome and beautiful. If I will have too rate this place then it is quite cool. I give five star. Very wonderful stadium.
It is Nepalese first national stadium. It was built in 1956 and to date hasn’t changed almost at all with its original stands preserved. It has one grandstand with seats and partial cover and remaining sections being open and ‘C’ shaped. Since the very beginning it’s been the country’s central sports and cultural venue, just to mention the fact that majority of Nepal’s top league clubs play their home games here.
It went through several renovations, but each time the works were rather symbolic – new furnishings, paintwork or installations, like floodlights or giant screen. Most significant works preceded large tournaments hosted here, like the Asian Games of 1999 and 2012 AFC Challenge Cup. Apart from sport numerous festivals and entertainment events take place here with international stars also appearing – like Bryan Adams in 2011.
This stadium’s history has a dark page. On March 12 1988 hailstorm started during a football game. With hailstorms in Nepal being very intensive at this part of the year and causing pain to unprotected people, most spectators from the uncovered stands rushed to the only grandstand with some roof. There was no room for them and so police forces started to fight the crowd off. In an attempt to flee the ground people then rushed towards one of the gates, but it had been closed after game began to avoid illegal entry. In a massive crush 93 people were killed with some 100 more injured. Despite its giant scale, this tragedy hasn’t received international attention.
The Dasarath Stadium is about 15 Kilometer from the Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu, Nepal. By Bus or Taxi you can reach by 30-45 minutes from the airport. Now it is being renovated after the earthquake damage.
The stadium is currently used mostly for football matches and cultural and entertainment programs. Three Star Club are tenants of the stadium. It has floodlights installed, to facilitate matches and events in the evenings. Most of Nepal's national and international tournaments are held in this stadium. Nepal's primary football division, Martyr's Memorial League, is also held in this ground every year........
Probably the only proper stadium in Nepal.

It gave a platform for a lot of national and international tournaments. It's a historical place standing since a long facing periodical changes in the city. But the infrastructures need to be improved a lot. Management system is so weak.
National stadium of our country. It hosts International football events and also national level league matches. Located centrally, it is reachable from most parts of Kathmandu. It needs an upgrade from current position as it is the only international stadium till date.
The palce is being renovated......... It is the one and only international leveled stadium in our country. The stadium requires high level of maintenance and immediate posituve actions...............

The only stadium of nepal but under reconstruction. Should have done better with it.
Only stadium in Nepal, so it is great .
Being international stadium, which should reflect entire Nepal but is in the state of neglect. I felt so disappointed after a visit.
Center of city all most government programs are organized.
One and only international stadium of Nepal, but is in unmanaged condition
It became a platform for a lot of international tournaments. It's a historical place. But the infrastructures have to be improved a lot. Management system is so weak.
The only national stadium offering various national and international games like football and others.
It is the national stadium of Nepal and has special natural touch to it, which is felt once you train over there. The lack of equipment is what gives you an insight towards proper body weight training.
