NINI the fifth MASCOT

Nini's figure is drawn from the tradition of kite-flying designs. Every spring and summer, the children of Beijing have flown beautiful (byoo-tuh-fuhl) kites on the currents of wind that blow through the capital. Her golden wings symbolise the infinite sky and spread good luck as a blessing wherever she flies.
