The 798

Holy cow, if you come to Beijing and you like art/architecture, you gotta check out the 798 Art District. I don't know the full story but apparently they (whoever "they" are) converted old military factories into art space, and the effect is just awesome. Towering towers, cavernous warehouses, expansive wooden platforms. I could have stayed here for hours. Oh wait, I did.


Multiple alleyways where artists left their mark. Or their scooters:








Industrial chic:







His and her bathrooms!




I saw at least 2 couples doing photo shoots. I'm so curious how the pics turned out!






Creepy big heads. I was smiling on the outside, urinating on the inside:




Great graffiti!




Trains:



Naked hangers:

And beef brisket noodles :D
