Shanghai Indoor Stadium is an interchange station between lines 1 and 4 of the Shanghai Metro.[1] This station is part of the initial southern section of the line that opened on 28 May 1993[2] [3] and is located in Xuhui District; the interchange with Line 4 opened on 31 December 2005.[4]
The Chinese name of this station (Chinese: 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 (Chinese: 上海体育场站) 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.
