Within a short walk of the Strahov Monastery, lies the Spartakiad stadium where the Communists used to hold their huge youth displays featuring gymnastics and marching. Reputed at one time to have been the largest stadium in the world holding some 250,000 people, it is now best know for the large outdoor concerts, such as The Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd performing there. Overgrown and rutted, it is also used as a location for agricultural trade fairs and exhibitions. Nearby is the Stadion Evzena Rosickeho, which used to be the national soccer stadium and across the road is a small athletics track where many of the leading Czech athletes train today. Try one of several bars in the complex, where the walls are covered with photographs and souvenirs of great players and matches.
