The Palace of Water Sports (Russian: Дворец водных видов спорта; Tatar: Су спорт төрләре сара) is an indoor aquatics centre in Kazan, Tatarstan, Russia which was built for the 2013 Summer Universiade. Located on the banks of the Kazanka River, the competitions in synchronized swimming, diving, swimming and water polo took place here. It later hosted the diving events for the 2015 World Aquatics Championships. As of 2018, the facility was utilized by approximately 3,000 children per day.[1]
The temporary open arena for water polo with a spectator capacity of 3,500 was built nearby, using its service and support systems.[citation needed]
