The National Hope Stadium is the biggest stadium in Aceh. This stadium is located in the city of Banda Aceh, Lhoong Raya village, Banda Raya district. Well, the stadium itself has a fairly large size with an audience capacity of ± 45,000 people. This stadium was built a very long time ago, namely in 1997, and was completely renovated after the tsunami disaster in 2004, by the government. But not only in 2004, several years later this stadium also suffered damage due to lack of maintenance, so that it was renovated again in 2011 and 2017. The Harapan Bangsa Stadium is often known as the Lhoong Raya Stadium, this is because the location where this stadium was located is in the village of Lhoong Raya.

Yesterday, to be precise, I went to the stadium to exercise for a while. The goal is I just want to jog for a while, apart from exercising there are lots of other activities to do here. This stadium is the choice of local people to do jog activities in the morning and evening. So apart from that, on weekends you will find lots of people, especially young men and women, to jog or at the same time play while doing other sports here.

That afternoon, I came alone to the stadium, so now when I return to my village, I rarely find friends to take me to exercise. Each of my friends who used to have their own activities, rarely even had time to just play together. As a result I do it myself, this is all for the health of my body too.

After parking the motorbike in the parking area, I immediately rushed to tidy up my clothes, then started looking around the stadium area. It is quite spacious and clean, in fact everything including the streets and parks are neatly arranged. Before entering the main stadium area on the outside, there are several other sports venues which are equipped with various facilities so that it is very comfortable for the users of this stadium. There are also visible facilities in the form of tennis courts, basketball, futsal, volleyball, takraw, archery and football. Now all of these sports fields are located outside the main building area of ​​the stadium.

In addition to public sports fields, on the outside there are also other facilities, such as buildings that facilitate sports, such as special sports offices and places of worship. So, don't doubt that the maintenance and cleanliness of this building has changed a lot from year to year, it's very neat and clean, so I feel very comfortable here.

After touring several parts of the stadium, in the outside area I also saw that there was a special children's play area. Here they designed some simple children's playgrounds. I didn't see many young children today, most likely I didn't come on the weekend. I only saw a few small children playing on the simple rides. But you can imagine what if this place is filled with children, surely they will enjoy some of these playgrounds with a happy heart.

In addition to complete facilities, I also found other beauty outside this building. There is something unique about the fence area outside the stadium wall. The walls are very skillfully painted, lots of stories in the pictures and very creative in my opinion. Apart from being beautiful, the area becomes more colorful with the colorful walls that surround it.

After walking around outside the main stadium building, the curiosity of entering the area inside the huge building in front of my eyes really made my heart flutter. The building is the main building of the stadium. I've been watching this building from the outside for a long time. The form and architectural design looks surreal from the outside and is very nice. This building has 4 sides, namely the front, rear, left and right sides which are designed and built very neatly. Like stadiums in general, this stadium has a classic type building but looks sturdy and majestic. This made me like the exterior design of this building.

My curiosity was unstoppable, after taking pictures of several parts of the building area, I immediately entered the main building. Entering it, I was amazed by the extent of the football field. The ball playing area is neatly arranged, especially the green grass is very beautiful. Next to the playing field there is also an area for running. Lots of athletes have been practicing or doing light exercise while jogging in the afternoon.

Apart from having a good field, just look at how the chairs that accommodate the audience are neatly arranged. So it really spoiled me, I also tried to be above the audience seats. I think I should come when there is a soccer tournament in the future. This will be very exciting you can imagine right? What if this place is filled with soccer players. Especially when the fans cheer up here, it must be beautiful and amazing.
