Olympic Forest Park
Aoyuncun Subdistrict, People's Republic of China · built 2008
The Olympic Forest Park (pinyin: Àolínpǐkè Sēnlín Gōngyuán) is a large, man-made forest park situated at the north end of the Olympic Green in Beijing. Built for the 2008 Summer Olympics, the park has two parts: the southern part is oval in shape and features Aohai lake in the center, and the northern side has a mountain that gives an excellent view of this part of the city. The northern part is outside of the 5th Ring Road. The park was designed by Sasaki and implemented by the Tsinghua Landscape Design Institute. The park features many walking paths and a jogging path. Several small islands in the lake are linked by bridges. The south-east end of the lake has a handful of carnival rides for children.
