Beijing WaterCube

I spent a good part of an hour today just taking a sneak peak at all the insane architecture for the Beijing Olympics. Those of you on the ground in Beijing have literally seen the city change in front of your eyes over the past several years and I only got tiny glimpses of it during the few days I spent there some months back for a conference.

Here's one I'd like to share with you because if it looks anything like the way it's been conceptualized, THAT is totally on my list of must-see places either before or after the madness of the games.

I've been in Beijing for nearly five years, and the change has been nothing short of amazing. The new National Theater is simply breathtaking, tho it's proximity to Tiananmen Square was a bit surprising to me, as one of Beijing's most modern buildings is now right up alongside some of the most traditional structures. All of the Olympic venues are exceptional, by any standards. Now if they can only get the subways ready in time...

Hmm. Are we ready for the underground dragon in the capital of 1.3 billion and counting to beat the likes of the New York Subway and the Tube come 2015? :-)
