The bar is committed to becoming a new landmark of beer and fashion culture as well as an entertainment hub, to help shore up the nighttime economy in Licang district, according to local officials.
To further boost its nighttime economy with cultural activities and aid the economic recovery after the outbreak of COVID-19, Licang district launched its first cultural consumption campaign in July.
The promotion event featured markets with exquisite handicrafts such as ceramics, rubbings and 3D-printed items as well as a wide variety of cultural and creative souvenirs.
Coinciding with the promotion, traditional culture performances of poetry recitation, painting, calligraphy and guqin, a zither-like seven-stringed traditional Chinese instrument, let visitors feel the charm of the culture of Licang.
