Beijing's Olympic Bird's Nest Stadium makes its debut to the foreign media.

The iconic 3.5 billion yuan (500.2 million USD) arena, the centrepiece of the Beijing Olympics, took more than four years to build.


Construction started in December 2003 and was completed 14 weeks behind schedule.

This will help the Chinese people feel a little national pride, and boost the government in the eye of it's people as well.

Sigh, more of the same stuff katyzzz, China has been at the game of politics longer than most countries have been around, so being out maneuvered by them shouldn't be a shock.
