the fireworks are so cool as well...nver 4gt that china is famous with its creation of gunpowder! with the bird nest stadium was specifically built in the same line with the Forbidden City and the Tianan men Square, the firework in a series of 'footprints' began with the 1st 'footstep' from the forbidden city (cant believe the firework design is a footprint! SO COOL la!) till the 29th footprint 'firework' ended up at The Bird Nest Stadium.. WHy there is 29? bcoz its 29th Opympic Games this yr...
The 'footprints' changed into cluster of falling stars which gather to form the olympic rings.
The whole ceremony depicts the history of China in 15 mins. Added up with the advanced technology of laser, the whole thing is reflected perfectly... Especially the part when a large scroll opened up in the middle of the stadium which represents Papermaking is one of the big invention of China!
