With 10-foot fences and dutifully stoic sentries stationed around the perimeter, this is about as close as I can get to the Bird’s Nest and next door Water Cube without major league press credentials. But it’s nonetheless very impressive, even awesome in the true (not followed by “dude”) sense of the word … I was actually a little surprised at how captivating and dynamic the structure is. And what a footprint, the thing’s massive. But has anyone else noticed that it’s stylistically reminiscent of an Eddie Van Halen guitar?!
