Modern World
by Josh Lew on August 15, 2007

Only a few stores in Beijing sell skateboards and BMX bikes, and the punk music scene here is concentrated around a small number of clubs that sometimes have punk concerts.
Beijing's rock music scene is young and energetic, but fits into the underground/subculture category, at least by western standards.
Some scenes are making the transition from offbeat to trendy. Dashanzi is the center of Beijing's arts. A former manufacturing and warehouse district, it is not filled with ultra hip bars and numerous art galleries. Dashanzi is definitely a place to find the modern and culturing edge in Beijing.
