Description
Available in:

Estádio Vasco da Gama, popularly known as São Januário owing to its location on a street of the same name, is the home ground of CR Vasco da Gama. It is located in the Vasco da Gama neighborhood, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on a hill near the National Observatory of Brazil. Because of its position, it has given Vasco the nickname of Gigante da Colina (Giant of the Hill).

São Januário is considered by fans, journalists, professors and politicians as a symbol of struggle and resistance against racism in the history of Brazil. This stadium has also historic importance, because Brazilian president Getúlio Vargas used it many times to deliver speeches to the Brazilian people. Vargas announced the first Brazilian work laws on the tribune of São Januário.
