Excellent filming and photography! I hit the subscribe button without any hesitation. Since you like 798, another site worth exploring is Shougang Park in western Beijing city. It’s a huge decommissioned steel plant but now it’s turning into a winter sports complex with the “Big Air” and an ice hockey stadium, prepared for 2022 Winter Olympics. Almost all of the industrial facilities are preserved well.
