Olympic 2008 Stadiums

National Stadium or The "Nest"

WOW! Look at that!

I really thinks the Beijing Olympic Stadiums looks great! The state-of-the-art designs, especially for the National Stadium and Aquatics Center look so unique that it drew global attention and floods of comments. Some say the National Stadium looks funny with interwining steel slabs to form a nest. Some say the Aquatic Centre looks just like a big block of ice... haha, to cool down the cross-strait tension huh?

Aquatics Center

And not far away... the most beautiful of all

Beijing Grand Theater

This magnificent dome is covered by titanium on the outside and it glimmers under the sun. It's surrounded by water and the entrance is an underground tunnel with transparent ceiling where visitors can have a view of the mass of water above. The dome looks very much like an egg in the middle of the sea. Or and island in the middle of the sea? or Taiwan?

Isn't the EGG supposed to be in the NEST? When will the unification be? The tickets for the Olympics 'Nest' Stadium is fully booked for now and thus leaving no room for the EGG. Perhaps Taiwen will have to wait until the 2008 Olympics is over.
