For instance, Jixiang Theater, a time-honored Peking Opera theater in Beijing, has taken on a new look after renovation. It is serving coffee named after famous opera stories, offering visitors an experience that blends the East and the West.
The Zhengyici Peking Opera Theater is a two-storey wood structure now located in Beijing's Xicheng district. With a history of over 300 years, it is hailed as a"living fossil of Chinese theater." "For four of the ten performances, the ticket price could be as high as 1,280 yuan . Tickets were always in high demand," Sun told People's Daily.
Beijing has become the first super-large city in China that has achieved growth with reduced input. Many old industrial parks in the city have chosen to transform themselves into creative cultural parks. The 798 Art Zone, by connecting the production and consumption of the cultural sector, has fostered a new business model that integrates sightseeing, art appreciation, entertainment and shopping.
