What to expect
HPCA Stadium
Located at the height of 1,457 meters above sea level, it is one of the highest sports grounds in the world. Here you can witness the magnificent Triund mountain from the pavilion of this stadium. The magnificent natural backdrop and the cool winds constantly drifting across the grounds is what makes a trip to HPCA Stadium (as it is also known) worth it. With a view comparable to the Adelaide Oval or Newlands, this stadium competes with the best in terms of its magnificence. The atmosphere is fused with a serene Tibetan aura, as seen in the architectural style of the main stand. This would be an expected scenario, considering the stadium has been set up in Dharamshala, the Indian home of Dalai Lama.
