What was formerly a textile factory is now home to a super-cool, hyper-contemporary art museum. How cool?! The X Museum is dedicated to encouraging new ideas and celebrating diverse cultures.
This mega club has it all: dance floors, multiple stories, a catwalk and an enormous stage. 疯狂的!Keep an eye on their Instagram so you know when the coolest DJs are in town.
Zaha Hadid is at it again! The Galaxy Soho, an urban building complex in Dongcheng, brings a wonderful fluidity that is in stark contrast with modern architecture's usual rigidity. Enjoy the retail space downstairs or grab a drink at the upstairs bar for great views of Beijing.
Standard beers are nowhere in sight at this relaxed Chaoyang pub. Jing-A constantly tests the limits with their brewing techniques; they love an innovative flavour, so you can expect some seriously funky craft beers!
With four locations in Beijing, Great Leap Brewery is a great option to throw back a few beers with friends. It's especially popular among younger Chinese drinkers and expats, so the crowd is always bumpin'.
