The Bird’s Nest, the national stadium, is located in the north of Beijing, with an area of 258,000 square meters, able to hold more than 90,000 audience members.

Started in December 2003 and to be completed in 2008, it will be used for track and field events and football matches during the Beijing Olympic Games. After that it will be used to hold all kinds of grand activities.

Seen from the outside, it resembles a real bird nest made of branches, which explains where it’s name came from. No wonder experts regard it as an incredible symbol for Olympic history.
