The Olympic press center at that time should be used more frequently now.

Next to the Olympic Park, I came here when I came to Beijing to attend an event. Many businesses held events here.

I came here for a meeting. The food was not very good. The location was good. There are Bird's Nest and Water Cube nearby. Metro Line 15 or 8

The scale of the National Convention Center is huge. I was shocked when I walked here on November 19, 2016. I guess it would be drizzling even if a conference with several thousand people was held.

I think you should go to the National Convention Center. Many technology companies hold press conferences and job fairs here. Although you can't go to the press conference site to experience it, you can also go to the venue to take a look. It is not recommended to go alone. You can go to the Bird's Nest, Water Cube, etc. together.

The wedding expo was held at the National Convention Center, which is very large, with two floors. The transportation is also very convenient. Take Metro Line 8, get off at Olympic Park, and walk for two or three minutes. You can see the Bird's Nest and the Water Cube in the square outside the convention center. There are shopping malls and some restaurants nearby. The facilities are quite complete. However, if it weren't for the wedding expo, I would rarely go there.

After leaving Tsinghua University, the next stop is the National Stadium. You can take the subway line 15 at the west exit of Tsinghua East Road Station and get off at the Olympic Park Station. Go south to the Bird's Nest and Water Cube area. When you leave the subway exit, the first thing you see is the grand National Convention Center building on the right. I used my phone to scan the whole view, but it really can't be scanned completely. The Linglong Tower is towering on the left side of the road, and the Bird's Nest is vaguely visible not far away.

From a distance it looks very ordinary and low, but when you look closer you will see that it is a huge building, very imposing.

I attended a copyright conference here and met some friends. It is a legendary high-end and classy conference venue, probably only inferior to the Great Hall of the People.
