We're going to what bar tonight? We're going to What Bar tonight. A tiny venue the size of a two-bedroom courtyard, it barely fits 50 people. But it's kinda cool to have some punk music next to the red walls of the Forbidden City. The atmosphere is peaceful, until you get a few musicians up on stage jamming, when it turns into a hot night for everyone in the area.

Opening Hours:
Thursday - Sunday 3pm - Late

Directions:
西城区北长街72号
72 Beichang Jie, Xicheng District

Get the train to Tian'anmen West Station (Line 2), exit B. Then take Bus 5路 one stop to Xihua Gate. It is 100 meters north of Forbidden City west gate, opposite 161st High School.
