Wudaokou
Wudaokou (""口) is a neighborhood in the
Haidian District of North West
Beijing. It is close to a large number of universities and research institutes, including
Beijing Language and Culture University,
Beijing University,
Tsinghua University and the
Beijing Geologic Institute, and as such has a large
student population.
Wudaokou is also known for its large number of international students. Wudaokou's popularity as an
international student area is reflected in its large number of
bars and
nightclubs (including Bar Loco, Lush and Propaganda), which generally offer cheaper prices than more central areas.
Wudaokou is around 10 km from the center of Beijing, between the fourth and fifth ring roads, and has good public transport links including a station on
Line 13 (the CityRail line) of the
Beijing Subway. It became a commercial center in Haidian during the
1950s following the establishment of schools. As recently as 2001 the area consisted mainly of
hutong neighborhoods and late
1960s apartment blocks, but major development has all but erased many of these old structures, replacing them with luxury apartments and science parks.
