This Phoenix Center has become an emerging checkpoint for this year's architectural photography category. The full name of the
Phoenix Center is the Phoenix International Media Center. It is actually the office building of Phoenix Media. It is a comprehensive building that integrates TV program production, office and business functions.
In fact, this building has a long-standing reputation, but it was suddenly opened to the public for free for a period of time in April this year. Although it is now open, it is also a ticket for 100 yuan/person in the name of the exhibition. Tickets and documents can be accessed at random.
This is also a white building with a futuristic architectural design inspired by the Mobius ring. The public area that is open to visitors is a space that combines steps, landscape platforms, air ring corridors, and sky-walking escalators. The
office area is not open to tourists, and we are reminded not to allow people or things in the office area to be photographed during the internal cafes. Of course, because it is an office building, try to whisper as much as possible so as not to disturb others. . The tourists on
working days are really few, suitable for taking good-looking photos, and the building itself is full of dynamic and vitality, so that you can fall in love with the environment unconsciously.
The interior of Wu Weishan's artistic career is representative of about 118 sculptures, combined with the modern architecture of the Phoenix Center, is a dialogue through historical time and space and cultural boundaries.

In the Phoenix International Media, in addition to the media room where the media people work, there are studios and other venues. The general time is not open to the public, no invitation, the building security will not let people in. I have been there once, because there is no exhibition and foreign activities, the door that connects to the square has not entered.
Now from 3.8th to 5.8th, the art exhibition of The Endless Beauty Han Meilin is held here. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the exhibition, I can finally visit this Mobius Ring building. /You need to make an appointment at least one day in advance, and you can fill in your own ID number for admission.
In principle, you can not bring professional photographic equipment, but after you found it, you found that the long gun and short gun tripod, no one said no. Into. If you arrive at the camera, you will need to sign an agreement for non-commercial use. I took the card machine, and the result is still to sign the agreement, it is better to bring the SLR directly...
, wide angle is best to bring. Portraits are shot with a long focal length, which can avoid a variety of tourists, and the space here is super large. Taking photos on the porch corridor in front of Phoenix Coffee is the most classic location. The staggered staircase is full of futuristic.
Only 2 hours per day to visit the exhibition, open from 2pm to 4pm, free tickets
public transportation, then get off at Chaoyang Park Station, walk about 500 meters
I drove by car. I didn't expect the parking fee of the Phoenix Center parking lot to be very conscience. 5 yuan an hour, no charge for 15 minutes! I almost went to open, I have been playing the game.

Traverse the Möbius Strip! Beijing's architecture has reached top level!
I say the Beijing Phoenix Center is the top level of Beijing architectural design, no one would argue, right? Even laymen would be deeply attracted by the ingenious design of this building.
The exterior looks like a huge bird's nest, and it's only when you step inside that the art appreciation begins.
The white steel bars weave a pattern of chaotic yet orderly lines, and when the weather is good, the sunlight spills through the gaps, casting a crisscross pattern of light and shadow on the ground, creating a strong artistic atmosphere in any photograph!
The huge staircase in the atrium is even more astonishing! Walking up, it's like entering a giant Möbius strip! ♾️ It feels like you're traversing the scenes from 'Someday or One Day' and 'The Beginning'!!
Address: No. 3 South Road of Chaoyang Park, Phoenix Center
You need to make a reservation through the Phoenix Center's official 🐷 account, closed on Mondays
💰Around 100 RMB, but it's still very worth a visit!

Weekend Exhibition - Vast Impressions
Recommended reason: A major solo exhibition of the Impressionist series by internationally renowned French artist Jean-François Héchiche - Vast Impressions. It includes over 80 pieces of his brand new creations from the 'Giverny' series and classic urban series works. The colors are bright and dazzling, it's definitely a visual feast.
Exhibition Environment: Many of the works are 'big', grand, vast, and extensive. A small garden, through the artist's creation, makes one feel the expanse of nature. When you see it, you feel comfortable in body and mind, and it seems very suitable for relaxing and easing stress.
Highlights of the Works: There are oil paintings, as well as works that perfectly combine photography and art through digital stitching techniques.
The 'Giverny' series is a group of works created by the artist combining Monet's home garden, trees, and figures. The flowers on the trees, the flowers in the garden, each one is different and delicately crafted, with characters or animals interspersed in between, which are very exquisite and worth a close look.
Interactive Experience: Although the works are very artistic, they are closer to nature and very suitable for taking photos. When I came over, there was a family with children taking pictures, and the kids loved it.

Sunset clouds @Beijing
🔷🔹The sunset clouds in Beijing are the best in June. Every hot summer, the splendid sunset clouds frequently dominate social media feeds. Yesterday evening, the sunset clouds filled the sky over Beijing, resplendent and spectacular. Did you see it?
🔷🔹How are sunset clouds formed?
'Cooking smoke rises, sunset clouds are brilliantly dyed.' As the name suggests, sunset clouds are the colorful clouds that appear around sunset on the horizon. It is an atmospheric optical phenomenon formed by the scattering of sunlight by the air.
Our environment is filled with a large number of atmospheric molecules and particles. When sunlight enters the atmosphere, it is obstructed by them. At the same time, these atmospheric molecules and particles act as scattering points, 'dividing' the colors of the sunlight and transforming into scattering light sources. Countless tiny scattering light sources come together to form the colorful clouds.
✅Must Experience:
'Red sky at night, shepherd's delight; red sky in the morning, shepherd's warning.' The red clouds that appear at sunrise or sunset are known as 'burning clouds' and belong to the category of low clouds. They are one of the phenomena of atmospheric change, often occurring in summer, especially around sunset after a thunderstorm. There is a folk saying that if the sky burns red in the morning, the weather may turn bad; if it appears in the evening, the next day is sure to be good weather.
🌟Highlight Features:
In China, during the spring and summer seasons, the prevailing winds are generally from the southeast (monsoon climate formed by the difference in thermal properties between sea and land). When the sun rises in the east and splendid morning clouds appear, it indicates that a large amount of water vapor is about to be blown towards the local area with the southeast wind. And as the temperature rises after sunrise and air convection accelerates, it is easy to form rainy weather; when sunset clouds appear as the sun sets, it suggests that the weather to the west has already cleared or the clouds have broken, allowing the sunlight to come through and form sunset clouds. This indicates that the rain cloud system formed by the southeast wind is almost exhausted, so even if there is still precipitation locally, it will soon clear up and the weather will turn fine.

🌟Summary: Passed by the Phoenix Center during the May Day holiday, took a detour to see the joint exhibition of two artists from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, one ticket for two distinct exhibitions was very good, and taking photos was also satisfying~
🐰Leap into the Rabbit Hole🐰
The exhibition theme borrows the rabbit hole🕳 from the movie 'Alice in Wonderland', like leaping into a colorful world🌈. Zhang Xi and his friends' works have different styles and a variety of expressive techniques.
✨Echo: Dedicated to Alice✨
It feels like a dialogue with childhood, this theme has a lot of visual impact, memorable is the baby at the entrance and the artistic expression made with teeth through a person's life; there's also the world under every teenager's desk (if you're faint-hearted🚫 do not watch 😉)
Additionally, the Phoenix Center is currently under renovation and cannot be accessed for photos inside~

Beautiful modern architecture female artist exhibition = warm winter sun
I've always heard that the design concept of the Phoenix Center next to Chaoyang Park in Beijing is great, and there is an exhibition of contemporary female artists, 'The Great Women', open here, so I bought a ticket, it's really a two birds with one stone.
🏙️Phoenix Center
🌟This building made of steel frame and glass, the design scheme is inspired by the 'Möbius strip', which is a mathematical model from the West, but its positive and negative connection, inside and outside connection, can't distinguish the inside and outside, full of the Yin and Yang of traditional Chinese Taoist culture.
🌟The Phoenix Center is very large, with well-arranged corridors, bridges, and passages, making the visit full of surprises.
🌟Good architectural photos can be taken on the second and fifth floors.
🎭'The Great Women'
🌟Focused on 39 female artists from different backgrounds and generations, each with their own unique visual language, showing us the diverse creative aspects of Chinese female art.
🌟Among them are cross-border artists we are familiar with, such as Ai Jing and Ado.
🌟The exhibition includes a variety of genres, traditional oil painting, Chinese painting, sculpture, photography, modernist installations, new media images, as well as performance art, NFT, encrypted art, technology art, social media art and trendy play.
🌟In one exhibition experience, there are so many works and forms, which is very stimulating to the brain.
✅Impressive
🖼️Ai Jing's works
The first piece is Ai Jing's, a large tapestry with a brightly colored LOVE woven on it, and the image of a mother sitting in front continuing to weave.
When you're in a bad mood, seeing such a work will cheer you up.
🖼️Ado's installation art
Located at B1, there are few people, her work has a separate space, with lighting, video, audio.
Because there are few people, the atmosphere is slightly eerie.

Emperor's photo taken in the Holy Land | Beijing's "Little Bird's Nest" in the future world!
Climbing to Beijing during the Ching Ming Festival, it happened to catch up with the Phoenix Center Building for a limited time free open visit. I have always heard that the building has a sense of design and a sense of futuristic, but it is not open to the public. This time it is a rare event. good chance!
Just downstairs, it was shocked by the appearance of this building. Pure white is like a sculpture-like building. The Mobius ring-shaped building pattern is a bit less atmospheric than the Bird's Nest, but more A hint of future sci-fi, it certainly won't let me down!
Come in with the effect that there is no hole in the sky, the pure white world, the steel bars cross the vertical and horizontal, looks disorganized but has an alternative design aesthetic, the mottled sunlight hits through the gap between the steel bars, let the whole Lou Xian is very bright but full of light and shadow, pick up the SLR, how to take pictures are big!
Photographing and wearing Raiders:
clothes can choose more beautiful monochrome clothes, red, yellow, blue, etc., can highlight the contrast with white buildings, take advantage of the panoramic composition when taking pictures, Put people in one-half or one-third place, highlight the building ~
