Plan your trip with our itineraries

Visiting and dinner on Sanlitun Street:

Lively street with shops, bars and cafes. Great atmosphere. Somewhat removed from the centre, but worth it. If you want a break from Oriental food, we recommend Bar 66 (you can't miss it; it's sponsored by Carlsberg). If not, you can always have a beer and rest your feet for a minute! The pasta is very good (Bolognese, carbonara...). 35-40CNY per dish; 30CNY for a beer. Live music. To get there, take the bike (it's in the north-eastern section of town, to the west of Chaoyang Park) or catch a taxi (30-40CNY from the centre).
