The Big Sky
Explored February 10, 2024
"Old but gold", one could say of this archive image with the classic view of Berlin's Olympiastadion (Olympic stadium). The sky certainly was golden because on that day back in September 2020 we had an amazing sunset (and an almost empty stadium since those were the pandemic days). In this view, you can't see much of the Olympiastadion's modern roof so this is probably almost exactly the view the visitors of the Olympic games of 1936 might have had back in those dark days.
Looking closely, you can see a dude, two ladies, and a person on a motorbike on the right. They were practicing some bike stunts. The forecourt of the Olympic Stadium seems to be a popular spot for drivers, bikers, and such to enhance their driving skills – as long as there are no events at the stadium.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend, dear Flickr friends! HSS!
