Carter at home in Cardiff
The iconic arena is where the All Blacks face Georgia in their third World Cup match on Friday.
"It's probably my favourite stadium in the world," the record-scoring flyhalf declared on Monday with a comment sure to win support from supposedly neutral but rugby passionate Welsh fans for the Pool C match.
The view is shared by other All Blacks with Jerome Kaino, back for a fifth time to Cardiff, describing it as "a great stadium and the atmosphere is awesome." 
Carter is retiring from Test rugby after the World Cup and will end his playing days with Racing92. The Paris team's home ground Stade Yves-du-Manoir was the centrepiece of the 1924 Olympic Games. The capacity is 14,000 however.
But it does not compare to the crowd, the roof, and overall atmosphere at the 74,000 capacity Millennium Stadium for Carter who has played there seven times.
The six victories were all against Wales while the one loss, the 2007 World Cup quarterfinal against France, no longer figured in his memory, Carter declared.
"It's just an amazing place to play, an awesome atmosphere," said the 33-year-old who has played 107 Tests and scored a world record 1,532 Test points.
In his seven Tests at the Millennium stadium he has scored 106 points from 22 penalties, 15 conversions and two tries.
Because Wales are playing Fiji at the ground on the day before the All Blacks play Georgia, there will be no traditional eve of match training there nor kicking practice. But that did not both Carter.
"I've played there enough as have the other kickers in the team played here a couple of time so we're used to the conditions," he said.
"As a kicker it's quite handy having a roof take away any wind or rain."
Carter likened the Welsh love of rugby as similar to New Zealand which made it special.
"They are so vocal and that's always an added bonus, It's always pretty electric inside the stadium," he said.
"Obviously we're not playing Wales this time so it will be slightly different but still a capacity crowd."
The All Blacks have won their two opening World Cup pool games against Argentina and Namibia while Georgia began with a win over Tonga before being beaten by Argentina.
Assuming the All Blacks qualify from Pool C they will be back at Millennium Stadium in three weeks for a quarterfinal against either Ireland or, ominously, France who shape as the two teams to emerge from Pool D.
