South of Tian’an Men Square ❮❮ 75

South of Tian’an and musicians, Liulichang takes its
name from the glazed tile factory
Men Square once located here. The streets are
lined with shops selling Chinese
paintings, musical instruments,
porcelain, and calligraphy – look out
for the giant ink brushes hanging in
the windows. During Chinese New
Year, Liulichang is home to one of
Beijing’s most colorful Temple Fairs.
