Day to remember for blind people at Bird's Nest

For Xu Liyi, what the Bird's Nest looks like has been a big mystery until now.

The 68-year-old resident of Beixinqiao in the city's Dongcheng district is blind, which means it is difficult for him to imagine the appearance of the spectacular building.

Organized by the neighborhood office, Xu and six other blind people were taken to the venue to "watch" track and field matches on Monday morning.
