798 Art Zone - or Dashanzi Art District, is an area of Beijing that houses a thriving community of artists among decommissioned military factory buildings of unique architectural style.
The area is often called the 798 Art District or Factory 798 although technically, Factory 798 is only one of many structures within the District.
In 2002, intellectual artist Huang Rui set up the '798 Space Gallery' establishing it as the symbolic center of the district. 798's popularity has grown ever since and is now home to scores of galleries, publishing houses, design companies, high-end fashion shops, fancy cafes and restaurants.
