Beijing winter wonderland
6 Jan
Beijing’s Bird’s Nest Stadium – the focal point of 2008 Summer Olympics – has been transformed into a snow-theme park in hopes of drawing visitors and their cash to the venue. Tons of artificial snow has been brought inside the stadium and around it, to the delight of residents of the Chinese capital and tourists. Despite the 180 Yuan entrance fee (£16.50 or $26), officials hope that the snowy playground will be financially successful. BBC
