Beijing Olympics Basket Ball Building
This is the basketball arena. My son said it was awesome at night but was unable to get a picture at night. Not sure why, perhaps from all the entertaining he was doing!? (I only have a few more to share with you.)
From a distance, it looks like it was made of straw. Hubby was in Beijing in July on business and saw some really unique structures. Wish I could've gone with him.
Some fantastic architecural creation for the different Olympic sites! Of course one can regret that the original Bejing atmosphere (hutongs...) may be disappearing.
It looks massive, maybe because there isnt much to the shape. Just a big box.
ReplyDeleteDon't apologize for sharing these! We're enjoying them!
ReplyDeleteThis is quite beautiful. I suppose it has something to do with his entertaining. LOL
