Bird’s Nest: From Under Construction to Impressive

The first time I came to Beijing was in December of 2005. At that time I had the privilege of visiting the Bird’s Nest, Watercube, and Opera House all while they were still under construction. Wow, has the city, particularly these notable landmarks changed in 2.5 years time. Below are some photos comparing the then (Dec/05) and now (Aug/08) of the Bird’s Nest.
