Photo taken on July 30, 2008 shows a sculpture at the Olympic co-host city Qingdao, east of China. The sailing events for the Games of the XXIX Olympiad will be held within Qingdao International Sailing Center, the five water areas outside Fushan Bay. A unique blend of sea and mountains makes Qingdao a well-known summer resort. With an average temperature ranging from 20-28 degrees celsius, the period from July through September is the most agreeable season for the tour. [Xinhua]
