Situated in the south of the Beijing Olympic Green, the National Stadium, also named the Bird’s Nest, served as the main stadium of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Occupying an area of 204,000 square meters, it has a seating capacity of 91,000, with 80,000 fixed seats and 11,000 temporary seats. The Stadium was designed by Swiss and Chinese architects, inspired by the study of Chinese ceramics.
The exterior of the Stadium is of pure steel structure, making it one of the world’s largest steel structures. Steel beams support and join each other into a grid-like formation, just like a bird’s nest with its interwoven branches and twigs. The special design makes the Stadium look like a bird’s nest or a cradle, the place to nurture a new life. It symbolizes people’s hope for the future. The novel but simple design makes the Stadium a special historic landmark for the 2008 Olympic Games. The main body of the Stadium has a design life of 100 years, with a high capability of resistance to fire, water, and earthquake.
After the Olympics, the venue becomes a facility of sports and recreational activities for the public. As an Olympic legacy, the Stadium has become a tourist attraction.
