Chinese Ingenuity: Bamboo Olympic Stadium


Every week we will be posting an article, video or image highlighting the ingenuity of China’s ‘Joe Public’. We already posted a video of a home made helicopter today, but couldn’t resist adding these  images of a bamboo replica of China’s iconic ‘Birds Nest’ Olympic stadium.

The 1:20 scale model took roughly 2 weeks to build and is constructed from more than 800 pieces of precsion cut bamboo!

Gizmondo has more details on the model with comparison pictures to the full size stadium.

More ingenuity next week!
