Yu Gong Yi Shan
This wonderful performance space is the best live music venue in Beijing, period. The sound isn't perfect, it can get plenty stuffy in summer, and its location in the middle of a car park cum bus depot lends it a certain seediness, but the owners have a knack for turning up the best local acts. Run by the owners of the now defunct Loup Chante, the diverse line up -- from punk to Mongolian mouth music, and everything in-between -- means you can visit night after night. Daily 2pm to 2am.
