The 798 Art Zone is a very inspirational area in Beijing. It's a mix of business and art. You can easily get lost in all there is to see when wandering around. There are a lot of artsy shops with handmade products. Overall there is a lot of art and creativity around in all of the little streets and corners. There are small art galleries and exhibitions you can enter for free. Furthermore there are plenty of nice coffeeshops and restaurants around. It has a cool industrial look reminding me a little of London or Berlin.
