There is a story behind every emblem. This story is full of enthusiasm and expectation from China and Beijing. This emblem records China's commitment to the world. She also embodies China's traditional art form, that is, "Dancing Beijing"-"Beijing Olympic Games emblem", and she is worthy of being an artistic monument in the history of the visual image of the Olympic movement.

According to legend, Mount Olympia in ancient Greece was the habitat of the gods, and the local people sacrificed to the gods every four years for good weather and good crops.
