Yunak Stadium

It was located at the north-western corner of Knyaz Boris's Garden, on the southern bank of the Perlovska river.

In the 1950s, the BCP decided to build a new, larger national stadium on the site of Levski Field.

Because of this, Dinamo Sofia were given a new home in the north-eastern suburbs of the capital, while in the place of Yunak was built the much smaller Druzhba ("Friendship") stadium, which was used for many years as an ice rink.

[3][4][5] After the fall of communism, the disused ice rink regained the name of the original Yunak stadium, but was never again used as a sports facility and, as of the early 2000s, lies in ruins, which are visible between the national stadium and the Sofia Metro station that formerly bore the same name.

[6][7] The stadium has also been used for unorthodox "sports", such as live human chess during the reign of Tsar Boris.
