An obvious stop for anyone interested in Beijing's art scene. 751 D-Park behind (and accessible via) 798 features very bauhaus factory design, and is home to the INTRO electronic festival each May.

Fantastic place to spend an afternoon. The heart of Beijing art movement with many exhibits of Chinese art on display. New exhibits all the time. A must see in Beijing.

Certainly a key stop on the tourist map but still worth a wander. Modern art galleries and interesting temporary exhibitions . I enjoy visiting in the evening for photography when all is closed

Lots of galleries , shops and cafes . A great place to shop, eat, and sightsee. Bring your camera and sense of creativity.

the most famous and successful art district in all China, a hotbed for art galleries , art exhibitions and fashion and design events . very difficult to navigate inside the park .

The 798 Art Zone (or Dashanzi Art District ) are 50-year-old decommissioned military factory buildings that have been taken over by artists and turned into an art community.

the most famous and successful art district in all China, a hotbed for art galleries , art exhibitions and fashion and design events . very difficult to navigate inside the park .

Ditch the temples and take in some more recent culture at the Dashanzi Art District , a huge area of the city devoted to modern Chinese art . Buy or just browse.

One of the most creative places I've ever been, anywhere in the world. Wow. Art and style simply ooze from the bricks and beams. A+ / **** / 10 out of 10.

Must seen not only if you like art but to experience a different side of the city - full of young and joyful people

Immerse yourself into Beijing's art culture and discover some of Beijing’s most interesting paintings , sculptures , photography and fashion at 798 Art Zone.

I was here 5 years ago and it was a BIG wow then. Visiting again today it has really gone way too commercial. A few good art galleries aside most are now touristy stuff. Cao ChangDi is the new 798.

The most creative art district in BJ with very successful commercial development. A place for film or wedding photos shooting, also for the art galleries , exhibitions and fashion and design events

Nice place with a few art galleries you can visit.

Really Huge Art zone , better to deduct a whole day to visit here ????

This used to be full of a lot of public art works and always had some Chinese touristy elements but over the years those seem hard to resist and the nanluoguxiangification is an inevitability

Start here, then gallery hop through a Bauhaus-style former industrial district packed with art , cafes and boutiques . For more local tips, follow us on 4sq or check out renhotels.com.
