Bird's Nest (National Stadium) Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Bird's Nest is officially called National Stadium. It is located on the northern part of Beijing. In 2008 it hosted the Beijing Olympics. Due to its magnificent architecture and the international competitions that are regularly hosted there, it has become a famous landmark in recent years. The exterior of the Bird's Nest is made up of intersecting steel sections that look like branches forming a huge nest. The unique shape of the stadium is truly stunning. The Olympic cauldron, shaped like a torch and originally mounted on top of the Bird's Nest, has been moved to the Torch Square northeast of the stadium. It is still visible from the outside of the stadium. Nearly 100,000 spectator seats fill the interior of the Bird's Nest. Their bright red color is magnificent.

It was an unforgettable experience! The museum inside offers a fascinating insight into the 2008 Olympics, showcasing not just the sports but the spirit and innovation of China. The architecture is breathtaking, and the atmosphere is full of history and pride. A must-visit for anyone in Beijing!
The main venue of the Beijing Double Olympic Games (Summer Olympics and Winter Olympics) can be visited in the afternoon, and the night view is closed at night. It is great and introduces various things of the Olympics. There are also souvenirs selling related products, next to the Water Cube National Natatorium.
Visiting the Bird's Nest in Beijing was an extraordinary experience that left a lasting impression on me. The sheer magnitude and architectural brilliance of the stadium were truly awe-inspiring. Walking through the iconic structure, I couldn't help but marvel at its intricate design and the innovative use of steel beams. The sense of grandeur and history surrounding the venue, which hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics, was palpable. Standing in the stands, I imagined the roar of the crowd

The whole visit was very smooth according to the signpost instructions, and the excitement of the 2008 Olympics was reminiscent of the nest. The nests 1 to 5 floors were very comfortable, but the top of the sky corridor was a bit sun-dried and worth a visit.
Best spring day!! A must-visit in Beijing, walking the neighborhood of the Bird’s Nest leads to other parks and attractions. Lots of street food and light meal options as well as coffee.
