"The Wind of May"

This torch-like sculpture titled "The Wind of May" is located near Fushan Bay in Qingdao, China, a popular vacation destination. The city is the beach capital of northern China, where the mainland meets the Yellow Sea. Qingdao, formerly known as Tsingtao, is also known for the beer that has been brewed in the city for more than 100 years. When the Olympics come to China this summer, the yachting events will be held in Fushan Bay.
