Campo Bahia is a sports and nature resort in the village of Santo André, famous for hosting the Germany national football team, who used it during their 2014 FIFA World Cup win. It is located on the southern tip of the state of Bahia in the North-East region of Brazil, about eight kilometers north of Santa Cruz Cabrália, and 30 kilometers north of Porto Seguro, on the Atlantic coast of Brazil. The resort covers 15,000 square meters, and includes 14 two-storey houses, 65 residential units, a fitness centre, training pitch, a restaurant, a pool area and easy access to the beach. A football youth academy and an orphanage will be built on the site as well.〔 The facility reportedly cost around £25 million, and was built by a German real estate developer.〔sueddeutsche.de: (Warum ein Münchener Modehaus das DFB Hotel in Brasilien baut ) (German), December 15, 2013〕 Whilst many sources incorrectly state that the German Football Federation (DFB) built the facility themselves, the DFB themselves have repeatedly pointed that this is not the case: "Campo Bahia was not built by us, for us or in accordance with our requirements". Completion was originally scheduled for March 2014, and there were worries it would not be fully complete for the start of the World Cup. According to media reports, the resort was completed just days before the arrival of the national team. The first visitors were the Germany national football team, who used it as their training camp during 2014 FIFA World Cup. The location was chosen to minimise travel, as it is within two hours' flight of the team's group games, and is a short trip to the airport. It also allowed acclimatisation to the weather, as well as good security.〔〔 After the World Cup the resort was opened to the public. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Campo Bahia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
