Dongsi and Dengshikou-东四灯市口

Gate of the Nine Dragons

Gate of the Nine Dragons, 九龙门 Jiulongmen for short, is a space converted from an old hutong courtyard house featuring two bars (a cocktail and beer bar), lots of themed sitting areas, an open courtyard for art salons, talks, and concerts, and a nightclub inside a converted bomb shelter hidden beneath a rock garden in the courtyard's center. The place to be for the young and hip of Dongsi and the Dongcheng hutongs.

M Woods Longfusi

An independent not-for-profit contemporary art museum, since opening its first venue in 798 in 2014, M Woods has quickly become one of the capital's most reliable galleries for drawing local and international talent, hosting such heavyweights as Lu Yang, Andy Warhol, Paul McCarthy, David Hockney, Richard Tuttle, and Nicolas Party.
