Yuen Long Station, formerly known as Beijing Textile Warehouse, was built in the 1970s and is located on the Maliang River.
You can also see a gold-lettered signboard with a sense of time at the south gate.
Mr. Liang Sicheng once commented on the renewal of the old city of Beijing: "The architectural transformation is not for rejuvenation, but for prolonging life, not for carving, but for flesh and blood."
After unified planning and construction, it has also become a model.
The park completely retains the basic pattern of red brick buildings with 30 warehouses and 2.23 kilometers of special railways. On both sides of the main road directly opposite the south gate, neat red brick warehouses and retro kerosene lamps suddenly have the atmosphere of Otaru romantic art factory in Japan.
The old railway station, which used to be responsible for transportation, is the core here. Although it is still under construction, many activities of the park will be held here in the future. The train track extends all the way to Fujiang Park in the west. It must be beautiful when orchids bloom in spring and February.
What is rare is that such a large factory still maintains a unified design style. At the same time, the industrial symbols of cultural memory are preserved, such as the original platform, the red brick wall of the warehouse, the gable roof, the cement veneer and so on. Every new or restored building also keeps a tacit echo in details.
Ring coffee
At present, most restaurants in the park are light food, desserts and cafes. LOOP COFFEE has three stores in Beijing and is also a well-known brand in the fine coffee industry.
The shop is located in the original site of Beijing Textile Warehouse Woodworking Room. The combination of red brick walls with dark green windows and warm yellow fluorescent lamps in the windows has a retro aesthetic feeling.
The shop is small, divided into two rooms inside and outside, with different decoration styles. The wall facing the door used to be the propaganda wall of the old factory, with a little Japanese silence behind it.
Although the coffee bar is located inside, the young barista will take the initiative to say hello when guests come in.
Bean list:
Coffee is mainly Italian, brewed by hand. There are three kinds of desserts, which have been seen and never tasted in other cafes.
The price is slightly lower than that of downtown, and an iced Bock Latte 32 yuan. Young barista, pulling flowers is very beautiful.
When we were leaving, we asked how our beans tasted different from before. It's amazing that one person holds up the whole store and doesn't forget to take care of the psychological feelings of customers.
This is a beautiful sun room. Although it was cloudy when I went, there was plenty of natural light in the room.
The room full of all kinds of green plants is very humid, and the lens and glasses are covered with water vapor as soon as they enter the door.
Tidy up and look around, and find that it is really like a lost world in the city: the rattan chair by the window is surrounded by various plants such as foxtail coconut tree, dragon blood tree and Penglai pine.
Near the Chinese New Year, there are many New Year's Eve flowers at the door, but plants are the main ones.
Every corner of my home is what I look forward to: I can recharge myself with enough sunshine and healing plants every day.
There are tall plants reaching out to the roof and small miniature potted plants. There are always surprises when you turn around here for two or three times.
This shop gives guests enough space and freedom. You can take photos and enjoy flowers here, or sit in a daze without being disturbed.
If you like plants, take them home. Meeting every life is fate.
There are many designer shops in the park, and there are also several household ones.
This one is next door to LOOP COFFEE. I was touched by the words at the entrance, "No one lives like you".
Pursuing one's own preferences and personality, like pursuing love, can be described as an eternal theme of life. I was watching a Korean drama recently, and one of the lines was "doing what I like every day is not life;" Doing what you hate is to live a good life. "
Life is not easy, so let your space shine alone.
In a very beautiful two-story space, every corner is carefully designed; Every corner is as perfect as furniture pictorial.
Many household items are designer items, which exert the greatest aesthetic feeling under the careful combination of managers.
I envy the job of dealing with beautiful women every day. It is also my pursuit to be a person with a beautiful heart in a beautiful space.
Have you ever seen a romantic department store?
This romantic department store is hidden in the depths of the creative park. Just look at the pink balloon decoration on the roof.
The goods inside are all pink and tender groceries, which are not exquisite or unusual. However, some small exhibitions are often held here, which has accumulated fame.
This exhibition is the first exhibition of "The Shape of Love-Spanish Art Love Vase" in China.
Tot Cor, translated as "All Heart" in English, means heart and soul. This is an activity initiated by Barcelona, Spain, which takes "love" as the main vision, cooperates with artists from all over the world, and conveys the idea that "there are many beautiful things in this world" through different media and forms of expression.
The exhibition area is not large, with 7 groups of vases on display. These vases are designed and created by designers all over the world, and they are full of different people's understanding and definition of love.
For half an hour, you can take a photo with the artwork. Who doesn't want to be loved? But perhaps it is more gratifying to give love than to be loved.
The exhibition requires an appointment, one and a half hours, and only about 20 people are allowed to visit. There are many people on weekends, so be sure to make an appointment in advance.
Yuen Long Station has a large area and many beautiful corners, which is very suitable for taking pictures.
1, cafe, urban roots, interior of romantic department store, you can take photos at will.
2. The red brick building is very beautiful, with many empty corners, so you can patiently compose the composition.
When you see the stairs, you might as well climb up and have a look. There may be surprises.
4. There are two small restaurants with French exterior walls beside the railway tracks in Ximen. One is me&; Me; The other is consett.

Looking at the national treasure from another angle: using technology to light up the palace lanterns of the Qing Dynasty for a hundred years, this exhibition is a bit wonderful.
The "Van Gogh Reproduction" light and shadow exhibition is the first exhibition in China, immersed in thousands of famous paintings in 360 degrees.
Some people say it's grotesque, others say it's farce. The controversial Italian artist came to China.
Xie Jie, Yangmeizhu at Qianmen, based on bookstore culture, is an invisible exhibition space, niche and interesting.
