The Olympic Park is located at the northern end of the extension line of Beijing's central axis. It embodies the three concepts of "science and technology, green and humanity" and is a new urban area integrating office, business, hotel, culture, sports, conference and residence.
Game overview

In addition, there are seven non-competition venues, including the Olympic Main Press Center (MPC), the International Broadcasting Center (IBC), the Olympic Reception Center and the Olympic Village (Paralympic Village).
Game introduction
The Olympic Forest Park is a highlight of the Olympic Park. The forest park is divided into two gardens, north and south, with an ecological bridge across the five rings in the middle, which is full of plants. The South Garden is dominated by large-scale natural landscapes, while the North Garden is dominated by streams and natural wild forests. It is a well-deserved "green lung" in Beijing. The famous landscapes in the forest park are "Yangshan" and "Aohai". In addition to the beautiful scenery, it is also a place for local residents to relax. At the same time, you can also see the authentic life of Beijingers.
Bird's Nest National Stadium is one of the landmark buildings of Beijing Olympic Games. It is located in the south of Beijing Olympic Park and the east of the central axis. It is the main stadium of the 29th Olympic Games in 2008.
The Water Cube is one of the landmark buildings of Beijing Olympic Games, which is located in the south of Beijing Olympic Park and on the west side of the central axis. During the 2008 Olympic Games, the Water Cube hosted swimming, diving, synchronized swimming, water polo and other competitions, with a seating capacity of 17000, including 6000 permanent seats. It is a water park integrating swimming, fitness and leisure.
The Sunken Garden is located 9 meters underground in the central area of the Olympic Park, and its seven courtyards with China characteristics represent the "Open Forbidden City". From south to north, the garden is divided into the palace gate, the ancient wooden flower hall, the ritual and music heavy door, the crossing of Yingzhou, the harmonious courtyard and the watermark sky. The seven courtyards highlight the elements of China and fully display the historical and modern cultural heritage of China.
