The Beijing National Stadium (国家体育场) or "Bird's Nest" (鸟巢) is the centerpiece of this project.

It hosted the opening and closing ceremonies, athletics, and football finals of the Games.

The Beijing National Indoor Stadium (国家体育馆) or "the Fan" held the handball, artistic gymnastics and trampolining events.

The Beijing National Speed Skating Oval is an arena that was built for the 2022 Winter Olympics.

[1] The park itself, outside of the venues constructed on the Olympic Green, hosted some of the athletic events at the 2008 Games.

These included the racewalk events, where the loops occurred on the Olympic Green, and the portion of the marathons just outside the National Stadium.

[2] Chinese architect Pei Zhu designed the distinctive 57-metre-high (187 ft), 11-story building near the Aquatic Centre and Convention Center.

It is located near the 2008 Summer Olympics cauldron, on the northwest side of the Bird's Nest Stadium.

[8] Visitors can look out over the park and the entire city of Beijing from all five platforms, ranging from 186 to 243 metres (610 to 797 ft) in height.
