Win a VIP Card to 1949: The Forbidden City
Submitted on Jul 4, 2009 2:00pmTucked away behind Pacific Century Place just off Sanlitun, in what used to be the research facility for the Beijing Machinery and Electric Institute, is now 1949, a neo-industrial factory-chic dining and entertainment compound. Behind the brick walls lays a quaint courtyard-like commune, which features indoor and outdoor restaurants, cafés, bars, gardens, terraces, a private members' club, and a contemporary art gallery. The restaurants each serve a distinct style of cuisine.

The Beijinger July 2009: Beijingers Bust Out
Download PDFs of this issueIf you’re reading this, then you must not have seen the latest issue of the Beijinger. Had you seen it, you'd be well on your way adventure-ing.
Still reading, are ya? Then you might as well go pick yourself up a copy of the magazine and live vicariously through our cover feature writers, Shelley Jiang and Gabriel Monroe, who recently spent two months navigating the uncharted frontiers of China.
And they're about to do it again ...
But that's not to say there isn't plenty to explore right here in good ol' Beijing. In fact, there's mystery just about around every corner – or up a wall for that matter (rock climbing anyone? See Sports). Or you can let choreographer Yang Liping introduce you to his upcoming show, The Sound of Yunnan (Stage). Plus, we've got Beijing's Top 5 waterparks, beer gardens, cheese dives and ways to get a tan without going anywhere near a beach. But if you do like beaches – and you should, they're great – you can head to Taipei (see Citylite in Explore).
