Nicknamed "Crystal Crown" 水晶皇冠, the stadium was built by AXS Satow[1] as a replacement for Wulihe Stadium. It hosted football matches at the 2008 Summer Olympics.[2] It is the home ground of the Shenyang Dongjin F.C. currently playing in the China League Two. In 2013 the stadium was the principal venue of the 2013 National Games of China with the opening and closing ceremonies as well as the main athletic events.[3]

The complex includes a 10,000-seat gymnasium, a 4,000-seat natatorium, and a 4,000-seat tennis field.
