Shanghai Indoor Stadium station: Difference between revisions

'''Shanghai Indoor Stadium''' ({{Zh|s=上海体育馆站|t=上海體育館站|p=Shànghǎi Tǐyùguǎn Zhàn}}) is the name of an interchange station between Lineslines '''[[Line 1, Shanghai Metro|1]]''' and '''[[Line 4, Shanghai Metro|4]]''' of the [[Shanghai Metro]].

The Chinese name of this station (上海体育馆, literally ''Shanghai Sports Hall'') refers to the nearby [[Shanghai Indoor Stadium]]. However, the station used to bear the English name ''Shanghai Stadium'', referring to the adjacent outdoor stadium called [[Shanghai Stadium]] instead of the indoor stadium. After the opening of the nearby [[Shanghai Stadium Station]] (上海体育场) specifically for the outdoor stadium, that station took the English name ''Shanghai Stadium'', while this station was renamed ''Shanghai Indoor Stadium'', now better reflecting the Chinese name. Still, confusion remains due to the similarity of the names in both English and Chinese, only differing by one word/character, and referring to facilities located in close vicinity.
