Beicang Cultural and Creative Street: Chongqing City, China

Beicang Cultural and Creative Street is located near one of Chongqing’s most prosperous commercial centers, Guanyinqiao. Situated between the Paradise Walk mall and 9th Street in Jiangbei District, Beicang was once a major textile factory. But much like Testbed 2, old factories like these have been lock decommissioned and have since found new life as cultural and art centers.

MAIN ATTRACTIONS

Block 1

Beicang is divided into three sections or blocks. Block 1 is the base area, covering 10.000 square meters. Here you will find the warehouse, a garden and a community building, an urban cultural library, Internet and Cultural experience store, which has become a platform for learning, communication, and sharing.
