From 8 – 24 August 2008, world-class athletes representing their respective countries will gather in China to celebrate the Olympic spirit and compete to create new world records.

Sporting action for the Beijing Olympics will take place in 37 different venues, of which 31 are located in Beijing. Of these, 12 are specially constructed for the Games.

Location: The Olympic Green

* National Stadium

The grand yet futuristic-looking edifice is the pièce de résistance of the Beijing Olympics. Designed by the Swiss architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron and the China Architecture Design Institute, its external façade comprises seemingly-random steel trusses that fuse together fluidly. Its appearance has earned it the nickname of ‘Bird’s Nest’, which also happens to be a culinary tradition among the locals.
