As it stood in 2018

What Luzhniki Stadium looked like in its prime.

A vast circular arena with a low, continuous colonnaded stone facade in pale beige and repetitive tall vertical window bays, set in a sweep of parkland and paved forecourts. The roof is a wide segmented white dome with a clearly visible central circular open ring (oculus); the dome sits on a raised concrete ring with regular radial seams. Scale is large — multiple tiers of seating rise inside the ring and cars and trees dot the surrounding plaza and parking areas.
