Shichahai Bar Street is a gathering place for bars with a more artistic atmosphere in Beijing. The bars are either on the Shicha seaside where the trees are dancing, or in the old Beijing-style hutong courtyards. Compared with Gongti, Sanlitun Bar Street and other places, the bars here are quieter. There are often resident singers in many Qing bars and music bars, and they sing very well.
Bar along the lake
The bars along the lake near Shichahai are mainly distributed in three parts, namely the lotus market and the Qianhai part, near the Yindian Bridge, and the Houhai part.
Most of the bars are ancient buildings, and the environment by the lake is very elegant. Some bars will also place tables and chairs along the road by the lake. It is very pleasant to drink and chat outside in summer nights. However, due to the boom in recent years and the proliferation of bars, the service and variety have begun to vary. Disappointing situations such as desperately soliciting customers and vulgar performances on the street often appear, so you need to choose a bar that suits you.
Among them, bars such as Huomu Bar, Jiading Square, Tianyudi and other bars are very popular with band performances, so you can try them.
Alley Bar
Compared with the flood and noise of bars along the lake, the bars in the alleys near Shichahai appear to be of higher quality. In several alleys on the west side of Shichahai, there are very good specialty bars.
Most of the bars are located in traditional courtyard houses. Although there is no landscape along the lake, the environment is quiet and elegant, with their own themes and characteristics. Some environments are very comfortable, some are very bourgeois, and some have very good resident bands and singers. Many folk musicians who have become popular in recent years have sung here.
If you don’t go to the bar, it’s also a good choice to just go shopping at night. Standing on the Yindian Bridge at night, the shadows of the trees on both sides of the lake, and the feasting lights on the shore constitute a beautiful night view of the city, which is suitable for photography.
