Beijing 2008, Aquatics Centre

Back Home Up Next

The aquatics centre was quite stunning seen from a distance at night. The various colours could be best appreciated from afar. even the roof changed colour and one sequence of lights looked like a dragon chasing around the walls.

 

 

The background picture for this page is a close up of the walls of the aquatic centre supposedly also filled with water as part of the insulation of the structure.

 

The colour changing in the panels was spectacular

 

The entrance to the Undeground where a station specifically built for the Olympics had it's entrance here complete with a MacDonalds !

 

Looking a bit more Chinese, this was also in the general area of the entrance to the station.
