Feeling peckish? This massive, multi-level bar and club features a large dance floor, multiple bars and eight different "rooms" with varying themes so you can find something that suits your mood.
They have cute and friendly staff (some can speak English) manning the bars. Finding this gem is an adventure in itself!
No matter where you’re headed out at night in any of Beijing's gay bars, it’s more fun with a crew—so bring a posse or at least some liquid courage to chat up new friends (and there is more safety in numbers where you can look out for each other).
As the sun sets, the city doesn't really sleep; instead, it dons its glittering night attire.
From sizzling street food to sumptuous Peking duck, the city's gastronomic offerings are as diverse as its visitors. It's a place where you can sip on a latte, admire avant-garde art, and perhaps even stumble upon a pop-up LGBTQ+ friendly café or gallery event.

Beijing Gay Bars & Dance Clubs
Currently, Beijing hosts only one openly gay bar, a stark reflection of China's tightening LGBTQ+ censorship and restrictions, as well as the lingering effect of the pandemic.
Found in a cozy basement, it exudes a super private, underground vibe that feels like a hidden gem. Pop classics that get the whole room singing.
Great Wall of China
Beijing is one of the cities that will get you (relatively) close to crossing the off your bucket list, it's just a few hours away. Join a guided tour or simply lose yourself in the labyrinthine streets; either way, you'll discover all manners of secret spots around the city.
And let's not forget the culinary journey

Queer-friendly venues come and go here just like in Shanghai and other Chinese cities, but when it’s the latter, new ones have a tendency to pop up in their place.
The alternative we found is WeChat, which will help you find up-to-date information about the Beijing gay bars and LGBTQ+ nightlife.
Exploring by day easily lives up to nighttime shenanigans.
