Let's get colourful!

It is an understatement to say that Beijing has something for everyone and this colorful gem in the 798 Art Zone is proof of just that. If you are traveling to Beijing you are probably thinking of visiting the Great Wall or the Forbidden City but what about something more edgy and modern...

I am very much into the old and historical side of traveling and my partner is into the artsy and off-the-beaten-path types of places. We booked into the East hotel, which is located a few roads away from the Art Zone, so we could cycle to and from in 10-15 minutes depending on the traffic. There are restaurants and art galleries mixed in with vintage shops and an invite-only cocktail bar that is built inside of a train carriage. Unfortunately, we weren't able to make it for our reservation at the cocktail bar but the biker bar next to it during the day was pretty cool all on its own.

The 798 Art Zone is a definite must-see if you are in Beijing, even if you are a history geek like me!
