Happy Lunar New Year, “live” in Beijing

Happy Chinese New Year to all Classic Town readers. TheBrickster and I are right here in Beijing, China where the live excitement can be felt upon welcoming the Year of the Ox. Lots of fireworks and firecrackers can be seen in the buzzing streets. Classic-Town.net staff wishes our readers a safe and bountiful new year.

I have a sudden thought. Do you know that the 2008 Summer Olympic games are held in August last year? It was a significant grand event, which marks one global sporting event that brings the world together to view the sporting events. One of the most significant grand masterpieces is the Beijing National Stadium, nicknamed the Bird Nest. It was constructed by a consortium group of companies reside in Hong Kong, known as HKLUG. The stadium features a lattice-like steel outer skeleton around the concrete stadium bowl and has a seating capacity of over 90,000 people.

The Beijing National Stadium was the site of the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as the athletics events and soccer finals. TheBrickster, shall we join in the fun. There is a big party bash over there.
