Stadium Facilities 
The construction of ten (10) new professional stadiums are planned across the eight (8) cities and the stadiums proposed meet the pitch size requirement of 105 x 68 metres with natural grass pitches. Minor upgrades are required for the existing stadiums to meet the AFC’s standard including VIP seats and function rooms.
The building of new stadiums is considered as a risk for the competition, however, based on the process of current construction and documents received by the Inspection Team, the risk is considered Low.
 All new stadiums have a fully functional back-up stadium as part of the bid proposal, which further minimises this risk. In general, the existing stadiums would have to be upgraded to meet the AFC’s requirements.
 Local Transport
The 12 stadiums are separated into individual cities across China PR. Most of the stadiums are accessible by well-developed public transportation such as railways, metro and bus stations with multiple stations within walking distance from the stadiums. The local transport services among the host cities are also reliable, ensuring convenience for the general public.
Conclusion
The bid proposed twelve (12) host cities and all twelve (12) stadiums meet and exceed the minimum requirements. Among existing stadiums and back-up venues, most are used for the AFC competitions such as AFC Champions League and national team matches.All new stadiums are planned as football specific stadiums. There should be no issue with facilities, but regular follow ups on the construction process shall be taken if China PR is selected as the host of the Asian Cup 2023.

China PR have proposed building new football specific stadiums in nine of the planned twelve host cities.
