To celebrate the successful host of the 24th Beijing Winter Olympic Games, the People’s Bank of China issued two commemorative banknotes (one paper banknote, one polymer banknote), and the Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited and the Bank of China Macau Branch issued one commemorative banknote respectively. The magnificent stretching rivers and mountains of the motherland of the famous ancient Chinese painting “A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains” demonstrated on the four banknotes show the integration of traditional Chinese culture and the Olympic spirit. The application of advanced new nano/micro optical security features creates a vivid picture of green mountains and clear waters which are regarded as mountains of gold and silver. Relying on cutting-edge technologies, the harmonious unity of the public security and artistic beauty is achieved. The joyous atmosphere of the Spring Festival is heightened by the integrated features of the Great Wall, red lanterns, National Aquatics Centre (Ice Cube) and National Ski Jumping Centre (Snow Ruyi). With the unique Dual Movecolor magnetic thread, bauhinia and lotus, the unique elements of Hong Kong and Macao respectively, are in blossom with brilliant visual effect.
