The dog days of summer are in full effect, so now is the perfect time to cool off at the pool – check out our list of the city’s best swimming spots in the latest issue of Agenda.
Or, if you’re in the mood for bread, buns, cakes and more, our list of Beijing’s best bakeries is sure to satisfy. We also talk architecture and design with Sanlitun Soho architect Kengo Kuma and Shauna Liu, the designer and proprietor of 798’s hip luxury Yi Hotel. Caffeine fiends should read up on Lawrence Chen, owner of the Pingod 22 International Art Street café Unconditional Love Coffee and quite possibly Beijing’s best barista, and Dr Philip Brooks tells us about Beijing’s first Western-standard oncology clinic, the New Hope Center at the Beijing United Family Hospital.
Finally, we’d like to make note of and apologize for an error in the Day-by-Day events section, where Monday, July 12 and Tuesday, July 13 were misprinted as Wednesday and Thursday, respectively. A corrected PDF version of the events section is below.
