Gymnasium

Location: Sendagaya, Japan

The match is held inside this gymnasium
試合はこの体育館の中で行われました。
shiai ha kono taiikukan no naka de okonowaremashita.


How to say in Japanese: Gymnasium

My impression of gymnasium, or gym ジム (jimu) in short, is full of treadmills, cycling machines, and tonnes of weights.
But in Japan, gymnasium 体育館 (taiikukan) is often refered as an indoor sports center where sports activities are conducted.
You see, same word, two different places, different meanings.
