Want to swim in a pool that has no edge? Now you can dive and splash in a futuristic looking and detachable pool just outside the Beijing National Aquatics Center, also known as the Water Cube.
The 25 meter-long and 15 meter-wide pool offers a unique experience as it creates an optical illusion of water coming from all sides, as well as showing reflection on water of everything near the pool. The infinity-edge pool opened to public for free on Tuesday.
