In the afternoon, IMPA students visited the Water Cube and Bird’s Nest, one of MCC’s most important projects. They kept praising the construction of the two national stadiums, which combined the architectural design and high-end technology. It is worth mentioning that Water Cube used to hold the Welcome Banquet for the leaders of 21 economies of APEC Members in 2014. The Banquet Hall and Group Photo Stage, which were built above the swimming pools, were kept after APEC Meeting. Students kept taking photos on the stage and highly appreciated the action of re-using Olympic stadiums.
