Ya Xiu
Market (Yashow)
is a paradise for bargain hunters in Beijing, a big
draw for the tourist with some money to spend and
some serious shopping to do too. It is located to
the west of Sanlitun bar street in the northeast of
Beijing.
Xiu Shui market
reopened for business in its shiny new 5 storey
shopping mall on March 19th 2005 (or thereabouts)
replacing the infamous original outdoor Xiu Shui
market. In doing so, it has become the inner city's
one stop tourist shopping paradise. It's name is
now written in English across the entrance as simply
"Silk Street".
World's largest pearl market
Hong qiao Market
also
known as the Pearl Market, is the place to go for
cheap pearls. While there are stalls that sell
electronics, it's pretty
safe to ignore them as prices are more or less the
same as back home. Just head up a few floors to the
pearl vendors. Note that the majority of the pearls
here are farmed freshwater pearls which are of lower
quality than salt water pearls so bargain
accordingly.

Beijing 798 Art Zone
The
area occupied by Beijing 798 Art Zone was once the
place for Beijing North China wireless joint
equipment factory (namely, 718 Joint Factory), which
was designed and built by the experts of former
G.D.R in the 1950s. The Joint Factory was designed
to be built in 1952 , constructed from 1954,put into
production in October 1957.
The
designing task of the 718 Joint Factory was in the
charge of a German architectural institution in
Dessau, which lied in the same city with Bauhaus
school at that time and they two shared the same
architectural spirits whose main characteristics are
meeting the practical demands; bringing the
technical and aesthetic property of new materials
and new structure into effect; designing simply and
composing pictures vividly with flexibility. That is
the genre what later called Bauhaus.
On
The April ,1964, the supervisor units canceled the
organizational system of 718, established
706,707,718,797,798 and 751. The former six
factories of 700, 706, 707, 718, 797, and 798 were
reorganized and incorporated into Beijing Sevenstar
Science and Technology Co., LTD in December, 2000.
To cooperate the reforming plan of Dashanzi Area
,the Seven Group rented out these plants for short
term. Attracted by ordered designing, convenient
traffic, unique style of Bauhaus architecture, many
art organizations and artists came to rent the
vacant plants and transformed them, gradually formed
a district gathered galleries, art studios, cultural
companies, fashion shops etc. As the earliest area
where the art organizations and artists moved in
located in the original area of 798 factory, this
place was named as Beijing 798 Art Zone.
Visit to Hotongs by
Pedicab
Beijing is an ancient city well-known for its vast
number of tiny hutongs behind the broad streets and
avenues. Hutong is a kind of special old lane in
Beijing,appeared at 800 years ago.A taxi bothers to
go into the hutongs,but a pedicab is useful on such
occasion, able to take passengers to places deep in
the hutongs unmarked on the visitors map. Sitting on
the pedicabs which move slowly and smoothly around
the old city, tourist could go inside of the
courtyard house belonged by local citizens,and also
enjoy their daily life style.
