Fun fact is that Chinese artist and dissident Ai Wei Wei collaborated with Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron as an artistic consultant on designing this project.

Absolutely incredible steelwork, amazing to see it up close and how it's intertwined. The interior is like any stadium but still so neat to see the Olympic rings everywhere, history placards, and more

Beautiful at night time. A little annoying is that they play different loud music outside the Stadium during a concert . Also the little birdnest lamps are not working anymore.

Iconic stadium which hostel 2008 olympics. architectural beauty and structural engineering achievement.

Beautiful venue, we were here in 2008 for the Olympics , saw Bolt break the world record and win the gold medal . Great family memories ????????

Must visit but if u intend to go inside the stadium , u need to pay Rmb80 To RMB130 to watch the light show or u pay RMb40 without light show during day time

Great cum special architecture & beautiful scenery of main hosting stadium of 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

All this area gives you feeling of freedom. Amazing Bird’s nest including wonderful monuments and huge square!

Art piece!! Attended the olympic opening ceremony and it was amazing!

Great building. Really unusual and attractive with unique architecture approach.

Great views with the VIP ticket. If you want to make a day of it go for a swim in the Olympic pool.

Ooh my aching legs! Don't walk up to the stadium , its really far. Enjoy it from a distance! Its freezing cold and they are selling ice tea !

This stadium is huge and super cool to see it right before my eyes!

it's quite a sight at night, but not much more. no need to arrange a tour just for it. you will see it in full view when you take a taxi driving on North 4th Rd or have dinner at nearby restaurants .

A definitely must see. Be sure to get the tour or else it's a long walk around.

Here Bolt added a 2nd Beijing gold in the 200m,breaking M.Johnson's 12-year WR with a time of 19.30.Bolt later capped his unforgettable Games with another WR & gold medal in the 4x100m relay

Great place for a full view of the bird nest

Arrive at dusk to see the stadium and the water cube when they are illuminated.

Architecture is also a piece worth seeing.

This spot is amazing at sunset and you'd never say that

Breathtaking architecture that cannot be captured in a photo

Aka Bird's Nest ---Amazing man made site as well as the The Cube -- Yin Yang

Don't miss the chance to run with the Segways inside the stadium , ¥150 very well spent! ;) Amazing architecture !

Very nice, Quiet place with relaxing music , near the lake (后海公園).... with acceptable speed WiFi connection .

Love the unique architechture

Still so beautiful after all these years.

Amazing architecture !

Absolutely worth to visit n take some pics here

Beautiful & spectacular fountain displayed

Looks even better at night!

Amazing building.

The view at night time is better

Nice to see and take a picture but nothing more

Wait till 20:00 to view in lights & illuminations

Instead of standing in line , head to the scalpers who sell the entrance tickets for just 5RMB more.

Interesting building although nowadays looks like it needs a cleaning

Going inside definitely worth the 50 Yuen

Alight at the Olympic Green Station (奥林匹克公园) of Line 8.
