Beijing's Art Scene

[The China Guide]

The China Guide travel agency, together with Hanyan Gallery, are offering travellers a unique inside look at Beijing's artistic scene.

Groups of all sizes can visit the homes and studios of artists both famous and unknown, see their work and meet the artists. Activities include traditional painting and calligraphy lessons, live drawing demonstrations, tea ceremonies, pottery workshops and walking tours.

Located 20 km outside of Beijing, Songzhuang is home to over 2,000 artists from throughout China and the world. Set in a traditional rural environment, Songzhuang offers everything from modern museums to humble artist studios, giving a glimpse into the artists' personal lives and work. The China Guide can arrange a visit to Songzhuang Art District as part of a complete China or Beijing tour package.

The China Guide is an American owned and managed travel agency based in Beijing.
