concert. Study photography. Learn to make
chocolate.
There鈥檚 something for everyone at the Jing鈥檃n
District Cultural Center, which reopened this month
after a two-year renovation.
The center, at 459 Wulumuqi Road N., is a quadrangle
of four buildings. The fa莽ade of red brick ceramic clad-
ding melds with the roadside lines of sycamore trees,
adding a nostalgic charm to a modern facility.
The seven-story main building is designed as a place
for leisure public arts, said Song Ru, an official with the
center.
Every Friday, free lunchtime concerts will be held on
the ground floor next to the caf茅. There鈥檚 cozy space for
visitors to curl up and read a book.
