when looking for this answer you will run into a few issues. First off, its China. They don't like telling people anything. The Beijing Olympics are more than just the games. China is undertaking a giant project to reconstruct and modernize Beijing for the world to see. Everything from updating public services to cleaning up alley ways in the city. The numbers have been between $40 Billion and $75 Billion.The costs of some of the venues have been announced such as the cost of the water park or their highly anticipated stadium known as "The Bird's Nest". (375 mill-422million U.S.) This is really a chance for China to show the world they are coming into the modern age, and they will go to all expenses to prove this to the world. except for their stance on child labor!!
Other costs include $300 million for security! Athens spent 1.5 Billion on security!! So, they feel a little more confident at protecting the athletes
