Eat Drink Play - Liu Li Chang

Aug 10, 2009

Liulichang is known throughout China and the world for its ancient books, calligraphy, paintings, rubbings, and ink products. Along the street, peddlers hawk snacks, groceries, toys and copper coins, and many other kinds of small commodities. Merchants race to their doors with a welcoming "hello, hello" for all their customers, but they all rack their brains to attract foreigners' attention. Some offer free seal-carving services and they even can find a perfect Chinese name for you if you like. Some shop owners invite folk artists to their shops such as an 80-year-old heir to the Qing Dynasty's royal embroidery tradition.

An Animated Industry

Parents throughout China complain their children spend too much time watching cartoons.
As BON's Katie Fischer reports, an Chinese animation expert says that focus could be put to good use.
These could be China's future animators. And their time to create the cartoons they love may not be too far off.
Chang Guang Xi, Vice Principal of Jilin Institute of Animation, says forget the years of math and chemistry. Get the cartoon-lovers working in the industry while they're young and interested.
Eat Drink Play - Sanlitun

The nature of The Village at Sanlitun is that it is more than just a retail destination, it is an 'open-plan' community with multi-faceted leisure, culture and shopping; a place that not only entices you to visit, but seduces you to stay, to while away your days; in an environment in which many ideas, activities and cultures are brought together. The Village is located in the center of the Sanlitun area, which has been the heart of Beijing's embassy quarter since the 1950s.
