China's largest bar street, located in Beijing's suburban Huairou's Chengmiao Township, will soon open its doors to welcome customers.
Named "China's First Bar Street", the project has broken ground and will take up 19.54 hectares of land to create 94,000 squares meters of construction footage.
The cost is estimated at 460 million Yuan (US$55 million). Beijing's existing world-renowned Sanlitun, currently China's bar capital, is only one-third of the size of Bar Street.
The project can accommodate 120 to 150 bars and shops each occupying anywhere from 100 to 300 square meters.
China's First Bar Street has three main parts:
European theme town -- emphasis is on experiencing the long history of bar culture, with a Baroque construction style as appeal, supplemented by red wine bars, Latin bars, cigar bars, and multi-cultural coffee bars.
Back street leisure clubhouse -- this will comprise fashion sunlight bars, teahouses, pottery bars, oxygen bars and book bars, all contributing to a quiet, courtyard experience that re-creates a trendy, healthy atmosphere.
Heaven and Earth All Night City -- this will encompass a performance square, dinner theatre, arts bar, digital music, KTV entertainment city and business wine bars. The facilities will be able to stage large-scale urban, inter-continental digital music revues as well as passionate music festivals.
