International Olympic Committee President Jacques
Rogge (R2) visits the construction site of the National Stadium Tuesday, October
24, 2006. The 91,000-seat stadium, known as the "Bird's Nest" for its giant
lattice work structure of metal girders, will host the opening and closing
ceremonies and athletics events during the 2008 Games. "It is, in my opinion,
one of the icons in the world," Rogge told reporters. [Xinhua]
