Beijing Olympics: the Bird’s Nest Stadium made of bamboo

2008-08-14 by Shu

For most Chinese, the 29th Olympic Games are far more than a sports event - it’s a national festival. While the games are heating up the atmosphere in Beijing, people outside the capital are expressing their passion for the event in their own ways.

In Hangzhou (located in the southeast of China), some farmers have made their own replica of the “Bird’s Nest” (the Beijing National Stadium) - out of bamboo!

Frankly speaking, the final result is not so “pretty”, but it looks like a real bird’s nest anyway. :)
Well, just for comparison, I would also like to share a photo of the real national stadium with you. It was taken during the fantastic opening ceremony, I love it so much!
