Beijing is to invite worldwide architects to participate in landscape
designing of part of the city's Olympic Green, Beijing Urban Planning Commission
(BUPC) said on Tuesday.
The future landscaping schemes, expected to embody Beijing Games theme of
"Green Games, High-tech Games and People's Games", are for the Forest Park and
central part of the Olympic Green.
Experienced architects, individual or in a consortium, are welcomed to
participate before eight qualified designers are to be selected from the
applicants, who are asked to get files for qualification censors from BUPC
between July 22 - August 1 this year.
The 680-hectare Forest Park, located in the northern part of the Olympic
Green as well as the central part, will serve to clean up city's environment and
as a good place for the citizens to spend their leisure time.
The Olympic Green, heart of the 2008 Games, covers an area of 1135 hectares
in the north of the municipality.
