Beijing - Sanlitun & Chaoyang (PDF Chapter)

This is the Sānlǐtún & Cháoyáng chapter from Lonely Planet’s Beijing guidebook.

Ponder Dōngyuè Temple and the oasis that is Rìtán Park; explore the 798 Arts District; visit the Olympic site for a modern-architecture fix; then it’s time to focus on Cháoyáng’s more hedonistic pleasures: shopping, eating and partying.

• discover China’s vibrant contemporary art scene at the 798 Art District
• maps
• hunt for arts, crafts and antique treasures at the wonderfully chaotic Pānjiāyuán Market
• transport
• drink some seriously good craft beer at Sānlǐtún’s many tap houses
• restaurants & bars
