While I'm touring the world... Check this out from Japan. The Sapporo Dome, a "space-age" facility with a grass surface for soccer and retractable artificial surface for baseball.
Looks like it has a retractable roof as well, though the whole site is in Japanese and I can't read a dang word of it.
Link via Baseball Primer, (because that's where the Nippon Ham Fighters are playing next season.) Updates on Japanese baseball there.
