Beijing Tourists in Beijing are already enjoying the snowy winter wonderland inside the city's Bird's Nest stadium, but next week they will be able to enjoy another kind of wonderland – one made of chocolate.

Workers were putting the final touches on a chocolate theme park on the Olympic Green near the stadium, featuring life-size replicas of the Terracotta Warriors and a section of the Great Wall, ahead of its January 29th opening.
