A small underground castle will soon be open to the public for free, just within the Second Ring Road!

Taking advantage of the recent cold weather, I frantically searched for indoor check-in spots and discovered that there is a free European castle hidden in the basement of Sanlitun! The castle is very large, covering an area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters. Going deep into it is like walking into the underground maze of Rome. There are thousands of jade sculptures on display here. The spaces are overlapping and staggered, and there are unexpected structures and exhibits every time you step into a doorway. The marble walls echo the exquisite wall lamp sculptures. Under the warm yellow light, the overall environment creates a retro, elegant and mysterious atmosphere. The exhibits inside are all private collections of curator Li Yingjie. Natural stone paintings use rock sections formed by crustal changes or volcanic eruptions. Each one is a unique work of nature. ⚠️It is said that it will start charging admission on March 1st. It is still free now. There are very few people when you go there on weekends, and checking in at any place will be super photogenic! 📍Oga Art Museum (Hard Rock Art Museum) 🚗Transportation: Take Subway Line 2 to Dongzhimen Exit C, or take Subway Line 10 to Agricultural Exhibition Hall Exit D, and walk about 1 km to the destination; If you drive, there is a parking lot in the hotel. 🎫: Free admission, no reservation required ⏰Opening hours: Monday to Sunday 10:00-17:00, closed from 12:00-12:30, open on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year ⏰Tips for visiting: 💡The light in the exhibition hall is relatively dim, it is recommended to wear light-colored clothes for better photos; light-colored classical long skirts are best. 💡Do not make loud noises while visiting the exhibition, do not disturb hotel guests who are eating and staying, and do not touch the exhibits. 💡It is best to choose a camera with a large aperture and wide angle lens
