Taikoo Li Sanlitun

Sanlitun became popular because of a certain incident.
Especially Uniqlo in Sanlitun is very popular.
Even after so much time,
When I went to Sanlitun again, I passed by the entrance of Uniqlo.
There will still be a meaningful smile.

I feel that Sanlitun Taikoo Li is the most crowded neighborhood.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, the lights were still on and people were coming and going.
Across the main road is Sanlitun SOHO.
The other side is connected to the garden.

Walking into Taikoo Li is like walking through a maze.
Various shops are interspersed in every corner.
I don’t know what kind of store I will come across next, it’s full of surprises,
Taikoo Li mainly sells various brands of clothing and cosmetics.
Many trendy and big-name fast fashion brands have stores.

The night was really lively.
The decoration and lighting are quite magical.
The dazzling night view makes people feel a little lost.
Different from rigorous and simple,
It is another passionate and vibrant side of Beijing.

Sanlitun and Taikoo Li, located in Chaoyang District, are the most "bustling" entertainment streets for Beijing's nightlife. They are also the places where celebrities and wealthy businessmen are most likely to be seen. Various luxury cars often drive in, and the person sitting in them may be someone.
Actually, I first knew about Taikoo Li because of the various "stories" circulating on the Internet. Later, I came to Taikoo Li because I was curious about the difference between this place and Chengdu Taikoo Li. After a round of walking around, I prefer the feeling of Chengdu Taikoo Li. I wonder what you think?

When you come to Beijing, how can you miss the fashionable Sanlitun Taikoo Li, which combines food, shopping, entertainment and art. So after visiting Lama Temple in the morning, I went directly to Taikoo Li in the afternoon to experience the trendy atmosphere of Taikoo Li in different places.
The colorful glass exterior has become a unique landscape here, and the gathering of trendy brands is believed to be one of the reasons why many young people come to check in. There is the world's largest Adidas brand center, and UNIQLO next to it..., which is particularly dazzling on the roadside.
In December, the entire neighborhood of Taikoo Li Sanlitun is filled with a strong Christmas atmosphere. The Swarovski sparkling crystal ball in the square is particularly dazzling, and it is even more spectacular when the lights are turned on at night.
Although I am not a shopping enthusiast, walking alone in a neighborhood full of festive atmosphere, strolling slowly, seeing the creative shops and people coming and going, I feel an inexplicable sense of happiness.
Walking here, you will find many places suitable for taking photos and checking in, whether it is a small corner, a wall, or a unique small shop, you will find unexpected beauty! Moreover, here, the art scattered throughout the streets and alleys always appears inadvertently in the details. When you are here, you have already integrated into the artistic atmosphere of Sanlitun Taikoo Li.

This should be a check-in and photo-taking location in Beijing. I only brought Sony a7s this time, with a 35mm fixed focus, so it’s a little bit insufficient for taking photos of landscapes and buildings. But it’s lightweight, so I didn’t encounter large groups of wizards, but there were some sporadic ones. Sometimes I think about street photography culture, is it really like this?

The style is completely different during the day and at night. It is opposite the Workers' Stadium and has bars, restaurants and many trendy brands.

What is the most famous place in Sanlitun? This is the Uniqlo!

感覺比成都太古里乏味些，就是熱鬧的一個逛街地～普通

Walk with me on the streets of Beijing, until all the lights go out, you will hold my sleeves, I will put my hands in my trouser pockets, walk to the end of Sanlitun, sit at the door of the tavern

Sanlitun has a slow business atmosphere and is a good place for shopping

It's hard to find a place to eat. You can ask the delivery guy if they are familiar with it. I didn't see the legendary guns and cannons.

Taikoo Li Sanlitun represents a cultural and fashion gathering place, so everything here is centered on people: in addition to enjoying food, shopping and having fun, people can also create art and lead fashion. Let this place lead a unique life concept and culture of Taikoo Li Sanlitun, and bring people a unique fashion experience.

【Xing Nan Diary】
🌃I think I am the person who loves to hang out in Sanlitun the most among my friends, except for my ex of course. 😃
🌃Since "Village" was renamed "Taikoo Li", we complained for a long time, but now who still remembers the previous name? Time will make everything go away.
【environment】
🌃Since the Adidas flagship store was newly renovated, the transparent main building can be seen from a distance, echoing the lights and traffic of Sanli.
㊙️There are too many Internet celebrity stores, food, bars, afternoon tea cafes, beauty products, and clothing brands here.
🔞Watching the bar street in the dirty street turned into a bookstore street today, there are fewer customers, and the night after 10 o'clock no longer belongs here. What has changed in the past ten years...
🌃Here is my favorite bar and the most stories. I won’t go into details😃, the stories will continue later anyway…
【Knock on the blackboard】
🚷Don’t go to the bar street next to it, it’s the kind of place with pole dancing, it will kill you...
🥃I like to hang out in a bar (quiet bar) in Sanlitun. I claim to know the average man in Beijing’s famous bars👨🏻. If you want to go, you can ask me (the price depends on your appearance and mood🤣).

It's just a business district and a shopping mall, nothing to see. I walked around for a while, but I didn't see any celebrities.

***...
Shopping... Shopping... Shopping...
There are various trendy brand stores here, but many of them require queuing.

The largest Ada counter in the country is worth a visit. It is located at Tuanjiehu subway station and within walking distance to Sanlitun Taikoo Li.

A very lively place, a holy place for young people to travel, play and check in!

I came to Beijing to celebrate New Year’s Eve and chose Sanlitun.
Let's have a cup of ice cream first. 😅😅😅

A place where trendy people gather. It's okay to go shopping if you have time.

A very lively commercial space full of fashionable elements

I wandered around for a while, but didn't eat much. I only had the cupcakes I had been craving for. I can't find the other pictures for now. I'll post more when I find them.

Taikoo Li Sanlitun is a place where young people pursue fashion.

The whole building is Uniqlo, and the stores are all in one building.

Under the cover of night, looking at the neon lights of Sanlitun and the modern buildings that are as dazzling as light sculptures, street photographers gathered in the alley next to Uniqlo waiting for prey.

Men, women, old, middle-aged and young, in bright clothes, move around in a constant stream, laughing and shouting loudly or whispering in dark corners. Listening to the various languages ​​rising and falling, one can't help but have an illusion that one is in magical realism.

Coinciding with the tenth anniversary of Taikoo Li Sanlitun, stories of dreams, drunkenness and love are repeatedly played out here.

In Beijing, there are few other places like Sanlitun that focus on telling the city's most naked desires and madness: scalpers who stay up all night when new goods are released, young people crying drunk on the street, groups of elderly street photographers, flower-selling aunties who are familiar with celebrity gossip... Popularity and luxury are intertwined and converged here.
If you go to Sanlitun South District at noon dressed beautifully, you will usually be caught by the elderly street photographers outside the Uniqlo store. However, when you pass the Michael Kors and Chanel stores and reach the center of the South District Square, 90% of the photographers have stopped. The fortune-telling aunts from the northeast like to lurk near the PageOne bookstore in the east, whispering to passers-by about your August fortune and your love life. The Sandro store is the dividing line between them and the shopping crowd. In the west, rapeseed is on sale at 5 yuan a bunch, but the residents of Xingfu Sancun who came out of Jingkelong rarely go to Sanlitun on their way home.
Young people like to dress up properly at home and come here, spending all their savings from the previous month while shopping. This sense of ritual in the consumer era fits in well with the rough and casual original lifestyle of this city.

Sanlitun is open, but people never easily cross this invisible fence, nor can they blend in with the surroundings. It seems to have its own barrier.

At night, the lights are bright and colorful, showing a sexiness and charm that is completely different from the daytime.
At this moment, come here and experience the psychedelic Sanlitun!

The girls in Sanlitun are so pretty, I will definitely come again next time if I have the chance, but remember to come in the summer, they wear less!!!

It is indeed a gathering place for trendy people.
The high-rise buildings of various shapes are really beautiful.
It looks better than Ping An Building. At least the glass is cleaner and better looking.
These buildings have lighting effects at night, so it would be more appropriate to come in the evening.
It's a trendy area.
Various novelties, novel shops, novel characters, etc.

It's a place for tourists to go shopping and check in. I take the subway here to experience it when I'm bored at night. There are a lot of girls dressed fashionably, but I don't think it's interesting, so it's just so-so.

There are many high-end brands there, I only remember Uniqlo (manual dog head)

There were all kinds of people walking downstairs, and I saw several people holding SLR cameras casually taking pictures of people passing by. Someone once said that as long as you dress fashionably and stand in Taikoo Li, you will attract a group of people taking pictures of you, and it is indeed true.

There are many fashion brands, and sometimes you can see celebrities

A gathering place for trendy shops and popular restaurants, and a holy place for taking photos.

The pedestrian street here is so beautiful, and there are so many beautiful things.

I don't think I need to say much, the building is pretty nice.

Uniqlo Sanlitun is a very iconic place.

Sanlitun is a place where many young people go.
At the entrance of Taikoo Li, I saw many geeky photography enthusiasts holding cameras and taking photos. I searched online and found many street photos of Sanlitun.
Through geometric shapes and bold, rich colors, each building is given a unique look and personality, creating an international, very distinctive exterior design.

You definitely can’t miss Sanlitun Taikoo Li when you come to Beijing. It is recommended to come to Sanlitun Taikoo Li at night, because the bars are open at this time, and there are more people in the entire Taikoo Li, making it more interesting to visit.
There are always long queues at Heytea in Sanlitun.

I wanted to listen to the music of the street singers, so I rushed to Sanlitun, but after walking around for half a day, I still couldn't find it. It's a pity. There are many types of shops, many brands, and it is a good choice for shopping.

I originally wanted to see the Internet celebrity wall, but I misread the exhibition time of the Internet celebrity wall, which caused a small mistake. There are all kinds of luxury stores here, which look pretty good, but not very suitable. I walked here for a while and left.

Maybe we went to a fake Sanlitun. It was very windy and sandy that day. The bars at night were the most fun. Unfortunately, the wind and sand squinted my eyes and we went back to the hotel.

Street photos of Sanlitun are very popular on Weibo. Standing under the sign of Sanlitun Taikoo Li, you can see fashion trendsetters everywhere, who are well-dressed. It is very pleasing to the eye. In addition to me, they also attracted the attention of a group of photographers with long and short guns, young, middle-aged and old. Some of them would greet in advance, and some would just start shooting, which made some girls very confused, not knowing which lens to look at.
The trend-seekers and photographers complement each other. The whole Taikoo Li has an atmosphere that you would have wasted your visit if you didn't take photos. So under this pure yellow wall, on my left and right are girls who are as pretentious as me but have to pretend to be casual. Hahaha

There are many foreign embassies and foreign apartments near Sanlitun Taikoo Li, and many foreigners go out for a stroll at night.

I heard this drink is called "Not Going Home Tonight". Let's try it.

Compared with the bustling Sanlitun, I prefer the flavor of Chengdu Taikoo Li. The long-focus and short-focus photos at the entrance are all uncles taking street photos, as well as fashionable young men and women, simple architectural lines, beautiful commercial promotions, and long queues for women's toilets. Afterwards, I chose to have dinner at SOHO Plaza across the street. It is obviously less popular on this side~~~

People who go shopping in Sanlitun are all young people. As the most fashionable shopping district in Beijing, it is a gathering place for all kinds of trendy people, and it is even more colorful at night.

Must recommend! Sanlitun Bar Street is bustling with paper cutting at night. People will keep pulling you in when you pass by the door! A good place for shopping and eating! There is also a bookstore with a special atmosphere nearby, Old Bookworm. Most of the guests are foreigners. There are some special movie watching activities held regularly, which is very interesting. There are also many beauties here. Every day, people carry long guns and short guns to take pictures here. People take pictures in the Uniqlo building all day long, haha!

Taikoo Li Sanlitun has become synonymous with fashion trends in the capital. The colored glass exterior walls here are unique in Beijing, not to mention the trendy brands gathered here. Taikoo Li South District, which is positioned as a "vibrant pioneer", has Adidas' largest brand center in the world and Apple Sotre's first direct store in China. There are also street fashion brands such as Shawn Yue's first MADNESS store in the world, which attracts young people to line up when limited editions are released. Taikoo Li North District, which is positioned as "low-key and gorgeous", has international luxury brands such as GGDB's first store in China, Vera Wang's first store in North China, Alexander Wang's first flagship store in Asia, and Christian Louboutin's first boutique in Beijing.

It's very busy, but you can just take a look. It is said that the bars have been demolished now.

Eat, eat, shop, shop, and there are so many shops that I can't visit them all. Eat and drink to your heart's content. The best thing is the soft shell crab, which is very delicious. I also like the squid ink noodles.

It is named after the fact that it is three miles away from the inner city. It is now famous for the Sanlitun Bar Street and is a symbol of Beijing's "night economy". The nightlife in Sanlitun is absolutely colorful and lively. The environment is very elegant, and I prefer the architecture of Taikoo Li.
Located in the eastern part of Chaoyang District. It is named after the distance of 3 miles from the inner city. Now it is famous for Sanlitun Bar Street. Sanlitun Bar Street is one of the most "bustling" entertainment streets in Beijing's nightlife. It is frequented by foreigners living in Beijing and domestic celebrities. Every night, the lights and wine here are bright and colorful, reflecting the hustle and bustle and luxury of the metropolis. Sanlitun Bar Street always gives people a feeling of "seeing flowers in the fog", and no one can give it an accurate commercial positioning. The north side of the bar street is the embassy area. Because this street is very famous, some foreign embassies changed the house number in front of their doors from Sanlitun Road to "Sanlitun Bar Street". The business hours of the bar street are from every afternoon to the next morning. Every day, many foreigners drive or take a taxi here, especially at night. Not only foreigners are willing to come here, but many Chinese also invite clients or friends here. Use this place as a place for communication. Sanlitun bars were once a symbol of Beijing's "night economy". The fashion created here was widely imitated by urban white-collar workers and the new generation who pursued non-mainstream trends.

Beijing has many famous commercial areas, such as Wangfujing, Xidan, and Guomao, but Sanlitun is different. It is full of vitality and is a model of the combination of Chinese and foreign elements. You can choose a favorite shop, order a cup of coffee, bask in the sun, and feel the literary and fashionable atmosphere of Beijing.

I checked in at Page One’s Singapore bookstore. There are three branches in Beijing, and the one in Taikoo Li is the most popular.
Page One is quite hard to find. Actually, the location of Page One is not difficult to find, but Taikoo Li itself is too complicated. At first glance, the floors are all intertwined. Plus, I am a person with poor sense of direction, so it can be said to be very challenging.

Just go and open it. Almost everyone takes photos in the Uniqlo area. There are more young people, more big brands, and fewer snacks to buy around.

Located in Sanlitun's restaurants and shopping centers, the night view is beautiful

I got to know Taikoo Li because of an incident before~~ But the night view is really beautiful. Is it considered a new tourist attraction? Haha

It's worth a visit, a place with atmosphere and style

Uniqlo is really big! Taikoo Li is a great place for shopping.

I used to know Sanlitun as the Apple flagship store, but now I know Sanlitun as Uniqlo

In my opinion, the existence of Sanlitun itself is a kind of fashion. The three words "Sanlitun" represent the forefront of fashion. Sometimes I feel vaguely that I am out of date.
China-TravelNote just recently held an Internet celebrity wall event in Sanlitun in December. Look how good China-TravelNote is at choosing locations and picking whatever is fashionable.

A popular check-in spot, Wei Cong Shan Hai, is advertised as being tastier than LADY M, but it’s actually not.

Beijing is worth a visit, our capital, many places are worth visiting

I went to Adidas, the legendary largest Adidas, but it was just like this, it just put all its Adidas brands in one building. No discounts.

Rumor has it that the son of the founder of the old British trading company Taikoo Li decided that "Da Ji" was a very good name, but because he was not familiar with Chinese, he mistakenly wrote "Da Ji" as "Tai Koo", which gave rise to the Chinese name "Taikoo Li".

Positioning of the North and South Districts: The "Li" in the South District represents the Hutongs, with brightly colored buildings and young and fashionable main brands; the "Li" in the North District represents the Siheyuan, with a more solid and simple design, highlighting high-end and individuality.

Since 2013, the Taikoo Li Light Festival has been held every September and October. Its unique and unforgettable visual impact, charming and fashionable urban splendor, and passionate artistic atmosphere have gradually become an extraordinary modern world.

I have been to Sanlitun only a few times, and it seems that I only come here for activities, but it is indeed a fashionable and literary place suitable for taking pictures. When I saw the Internet celebrity wall event held by China-TravelNote and Taikoo Li, I wanted to join in the fun again. The iconic building is the same as before, as if I was back in my student days, coming here to find youthful vitality. The red logo of the Apple Experience Store is very eye-catching. I found the Internet celebrity wall in two minutes along the sign. There were not many people. At first glance, I thought the wall was printed, but it was actually painted. I saw several very professional photographers, and tourists were scattered. It was probably the morning of the first day and it was Friday. I walked around in a hurry and took a few photos. The results were really good. I came out and took pictures of the square and the buildings. It seems that the most important thing to come here is to take pictures😄

There are places for drinking and playing, and you can also go shopping, but some are very expensive and some are cheap. It is recommended to book in advance.

I thought there would be a lot of internet-famous walls worth taking pictures of, so I drove from the west to visit here. There were a lot of tourists, but it was just a shopping plaza and there weren't many special snacks.

Sanlitun is like any other commercial center in a city, with food, drinks and entertainment everywhere. You can find what you want by searching on the mobile app.

I have to say that the ancient capital is so profound. As a shopping lover, I should have been enjoying myself in Taikoo Li Sanlitun, but this time I felt like seeing another side of Beijing. I only stayed in Beijing for one day, which was too short. I will go there next time.

Taikoo Li, the landmark building of Sanlitun, a large clothing shopping mall

Taikoo Li Sanlitun is an open-air shopping area with relatively high-end shops. The people strolling around are also very fashionable. Many people take long cameras to take pictures.

It is hard to imagine that this place used to be a village. It is named because it is three miles away from the inner city. It is now one of the most "bustling" entertainment streets in Beijing's nightlife. Foreigners living in Beijing and domestic celebrities often go there for entertainment. The big brands here are much more comprehensive than other places. There are also fitting rooms.

It is world-famous for Uniqlo, and there are many internet-famous shopping brands here, and there are also many internet-famous restaurants upstairs.

There are consulates of various countries near Sanlitun, and there are many foreigners coming and going here.
You can clearly feel the fusion of Chinese and foreign cultures, ancient history and modern architecture in Beijing. There is no sense of incongruity. This city is extremely inclusive, so I like it here.

Actually, I didn't know much about Sanlitun at first, but after I went there, I realized that I should visit Sanlitun when I was in Beijing. Of course, there are not only bars and shopping here, but also the latest trends from all over the world, and many popular online stores.

Sanlitun is a place where many young people gather and where fashion is at the forefront.
