Well, honestly, I must say I’m a fan of buildings with unique and fabulous structure designs. One of them, I must say, is Beijing International Stadium. Why is it then as the symbol of agricultural development of China? Somebody criticized it to be awkwardly ugly. They say they describe it to be a bird nest since it is like a thousand lines intertwined together to create the outer shell of the stadium. But I think it does resemble the China, the whole country culture and tradition in it and does make it become iconic in the global eye. Even with the interior furniture is impressive. The capacity of the stadiums capable of a thousand or ten thousand audience at once. That’s make it the ideal place to hold Olympics and that’s what the most memorable Olympic ever held in the world. I have seen it on TV and that left me impressive that day and I really want to come and see it one day. And maybe for myself it’s so unique that I’d like to visit it once in my life.

Well, honestly, I must say I'm a fan of buildings with unique and fabulous structural designs. One of them is the Beijing International Stadium. Why is it considered a symbol of architectural development in China? Some have criticized it as awkwardly ugly. They describe it as a bird's nest since it looks like a thousand lines intertwined together to create the outer shell of the stadium. But I think it resembles Chinese culture and tradition, making it iconic in the global eye. Even the interior is impressive. The capacity of the stadium is capable of holding a hundred thousand spectators at once. That makes it the ideal place to host the Olympics, and it was the most memorable Olympics ever held in the world. I have seen it on TV, and that left a lasting impression on me. I really want to visit it one day. For me, it's so unique that I'd like to experience it once in my life.
