Originally built as an industrial complex in the 1950s, the hotel became a cultural hub for the arts in 1995. It now referred to as the Dashanzi Art District (or DAD). This art zone is comprised of an area of 0.6 square kilometers, bordered by Jiuxiangiao Road to the west and Beijing-Baotou railway to its east.
The Jiangtai Road lies directly to the hotel’s south and Jiuxianqiao Road North to its north. Now a primary point of interest for Chinese culture and art, The Bejing 798 Art Zone is a world renowned location for creative industries including fashion and architecture.
