Kamaishi Recovery Memorial Stadium, Rugby stadium in Kamaishi, Japan.
The Kamaishi Recovery Memorial Stadium features 16,187 seats and stands on the former location of schools destroyed during the 2011 tsunami.
The stadium opened in August 2018 and hosted its first international match during the 2019 Rugby World Cup between Uruguay and Fiji.
The venue represents the strong connection between Kamaishi and rugby, dating back to the Nippon Steel Kamaishi club's success in the 1970s and 1980s.
The stadium maintains 6,000 permanent seats made from Japanese cedar and connects to the city through the renovated Unosumai Station on the JR East Yamada Line.
During construction, local residents debated the allocation of 3 billion yen for the stadium while many survivors still lived in temporary housing.
