Tag: Sanlitun and Chaoyang District

Sanlitun has been Beijing’s main nightlife district for nearly as long as their has been nightlife in post-opening China. Over the years, the area has become more and more gentrified and sanitized. Sanlitun Village, Beijing’s first outdoor mall, with a huge number of shops ranging from Uniqlo to Reiss. The trendiest boutique hotel in the city, the Opposite House is also here. Sanlitun, the CBD, embassy quarter, and residences of most foreigners are in vast Chaoyang District.

Wearing what one might describe as a 19th Century Ulster coat in a modern fabric, Edmund is a freelance writer based in Shenzhen. He was at “I Love XXX”, the Cosplay event that Hotspot magazine organized yesterday night. I suppose Edmund was thinking of Sherlock Holmes. Here on Tom.com are photos of less interestingly dressed, but more celebrity guests at the event.

作者Edmund穿的是个19世纪的Ulster外套。他在昨天晚上的 “我爱XXX”Cosplay活动。 更多的图片在这里。主要是有名点的人但没有我拍人的那么有意思。

Get a Mask!买个口罩吧！

Everyone always asks me how I can ride a bike in such cold weather and I respond that only my face and hands are really cold. To hold to my anti-automobile principles, I think I will have to get a mask. Maybe he should get a hat.

大家都问我北京这么冷，我怎么还能其自行车。其实汽车的时候只有手和脸真的感觉特冷。我得买个口罩。
