After seven years of preparation, billions of dollars of investment, and a mammoth effort to clean up Beijing's polluted skies, Chinese Olympics officials say they are staging one of the greatest Olympics ever. The 29th summer games began at 8:08pm Beijing time on Friday – an auspicious time and date in Chinese culture which regards the number eight as lucky. Details of the opening ceremony had been kept a closely guarded secret, but producers had promised a show that will "amaze the world‘’

Open ceremony at 08.08pm was so awesome..

The opening was held in the National Stadium, also known as the Bird's Nest, in the Olympic Green in northern Beijing.
The stadium was jointly designed by Herzog & de Meuron Design Office, and China Architecture Design & Research Group and ARUP. Its construction began on December 24, 2003, and completed on June 30, 2008. Altogether 45,000 tonnes of steel was used to build its framework.
The stadium's seating capacity is 91,000, including 11,000 temporary seats. The floor space is 258,000 square meters.
