The exterior shape of the Water Cube is also very special, first of all, it is a square venue, inspired by the "round sky" in traditional Chinese culture, which corresponds to the bird's nest opposite. The most eye-catching thing about the Water Cube is the membrane structure outside the wall, which makes the appearance of the Water Cube present an artistic effect of a combination of cells or soap bubbles, which looks like a huge blue water tank from a distance, which is very interesting, and it is a favorite of cold color lovers to turn on the lights at night.
