Tea and Olympic Park

We visited the Beijing Olympic Park - where the 2008 Olympics were held. It was really interesting to see it in person as it looked so different than what was shown on TV. The Bird's Nest was a seriously large building and it is much more study looking than it looked on TV. The Water Cube is right next to the Bird's Nest and there is a huge and long promenade in between. Definitely worth a visit.

Afterward we went to Dr. Tea to get a lesson in tea as well as taste testing. Tea is like wine - super complicated...so just choose the pretty box!





Notice how the building in the back is shaped like a dragon?
