798艺术区

大家好!  

Two weeks ago, I went to the 798 Art Zone in Beijing. The Art Zone is a large, art district that used to be a military factory. We spent a couple hours there, but you should definitely spend more time there because there are so many exhibits. We saw one that was Year of the Ox themed. It was really cool because it highlighted events that happened in the Year of the Ox for the last 100 years or so. It also had pictures of famous people born in the Year of the Ox. Another exhibit that we went to was a North Korea exhibit. It was very fascinating, and the art was very pretty. There was also a photography exhibit. The pictures were of various places in China and the world. They were all very beautiful but also very expensive. Some of the other exhibit that we didn’t have time to see were a Tibetan exhibit as well as a space exhibit that you had to pay to get into, but it looked really cool. Lastly, the exhibits often change so we went to some smaller ones that were there the last time one of my friends went and might not be there next semester. That’s one of the cool things about the Art Zone. It’s always changing, and contemporary Chinese artists are able to showcase their art. 

再见
