STADIA

体育场

After the Olympics closing ceremony, when the crowds have left, the host cities are left with incredible (in some cases single-use) structures. Exploring them months or years after the main event, there are only echos of the achievements and glory they once produced. There is a muted feel to visiting the huge arenas, which produce an instant nostalgia. In the case of the Beijing National Stadium, this dormant period is temporary as it will have another chance to shine, as a player in the 2022 Winter Games.
