Temporary theme park opens next to Bird's Nest

Visitors could view the National Stadium, also called the Bird's Nest, from a 45-m-high mobile Ferris wheel - Asia's tallest - from Saturday.

The Ferris wheel belongs to a carnival theme park located next to the stadium, which will be open to the public from this Saturday until the end of October.

The Ferris wheel was already spinning when the park opened to "internal personnel" on Friday.
