Faliro Olympic Indoor Hall (Tae Kwon Do Stadium)
The Faliro Olympic Indoor Hall is located next to the Delta Falirou tram stop, 8 km south of Athens. It is nicknamed "The Little Peace And Friendship Stadium", due to its similarity in design and close proximity to the Peace and Friendship Stadium.
The arena was completed on December 20th, 2003 by architects "Thymios Papagiannis and associates" and was officially opened on August 12th, 2004 - shortly before the 2004 Olympics began.
This arena hosted the sport of tae kwon do, as well as all handball preliminaries during the 2004 Athens Olympic Games and it has a capacity of about 3,836 spectators.
