completed in March 2008, Beijing National Stadium will host the primary track and field events of the 2008 Summer Olympics.
The stadium was designed by dutch architecture firm Herzog and de Meuron with collaboration from ArupSport and Chinese design and research group. By collaborating with ArupSport, the design of this magnificent building will not be completely credited to the Dutch.
The stadium has capacity for 91,000 people.
Check out the Beijing Travel Swicki for more information on things to do in Beijing, such as visiting the Forbidden City or Tianenman Square. Following the Olympics, I wouldn't be surprised if Beijing became a predominant tourist destination, not just in Asia, but in the entire world.
