Beijing's 798 Art District

Image
Beijing is a city of fifteen million and rapidly growing, but that alone does not explain its thriving visual arts scene: of the sheer number and diversity of artists currently working here. And where better to start than a look at Beijng’s 798 Art District? It’s an art scene on the move, and this is just one of a number of its lanes. It was just by chance that this modish pair flashed by as I was focusing on this sign, although I did react quickly! 798’s scale is better represented by this map. It’s located on what, a few years back, was Beijing’s eastern periphery: then a moribund factory area in the Dashanzi area and “798” refers to the designation of the original Bauhaus factory that became the first of the many galleries that have sprung up-40% in the last year alone.

Then you can be taken back in time to the old days. Beijing Shishahai When you think of Shishahai, the first thing that comes to mind is Gongwangfu.

So it is not difficult to imagine how grand and gorgeous this place is. Touring this old house, you may also feel you have become a member of this big family. Shishahai is also a cozy place to wander around. There are many old lanes in which people can walk without worrying about the busy traffic. If you feel tired you also can call for a tricycle to take you for a tour. Another place worth checking out is Yandai Sideling Avenue. Th...

How To Use Chopsticks

Image
　　You really have to master the art of using chopsticks if you visit China. In every restaurant, you will be provided with chopsticks instead of forks and knives. Don‘t be frightened. They are easy to use. Use your thumb and the fourth finger to grip one stick and your forefinger and middle finger to grip and control the other stick. After practicing a while, you will be able to pick up pieces of food. If you are able to pick up a bean with chopsticks, this means that you have "graduated". If you cannot use them, you can always ask for fork and knife in a tourist restaurant. But in ordinary restaurants, you may be told that they do not have them. If you are worried about it, take your own small folk with you.
