Beijing is expanding eastwards. Chaoyang Beijing Central Business district is becoming larger and larger; therefore many companies tend to move their offices in the eastern areas to have more affordable rents with more surface area. Following the same tendency, Chinese middle class people are looking for accommodation outside the Beijing fourth ring road, looking for residential areas with cheaper rent and where it is easier to drive your car while avoiding traffic jams.

East of Chaoyang Park of fourth ring road extends this large area that Chinese people call Chaoqing, with neighborhoods centered on Yaojiayuan, Qingnian and Sihui.

This is another Beijing district under renovation. Following the current trend, these last years, high standards real estate compounds have been built where it is now possible to rent very beautiful apartments in Beijing.

This district is now much more open to the rest of Beijing. Regarding road traffic, there are two major axis: the Jintong expressway which is an expansion of Jianguo road and the Chaoyang Bei Lu. Subway access is now very easy via subway lines 1 and 6.

These districts are close to two large Beijing parks: the lungs of Beijing, Chaoyang Park and another large park more in the south, Honglinjin Park. With affordable rents, this place can be a great place to move in with kids in a large apartment in Beijing.

In this district are established large Chinese universities as well as, for expatriate children, some international schools.

The Yew Chung International school of Beijing (YCIS Beijing) with bilingual Chinese/English curriculum, about which we discuss on our blog.

The Yew Wah International Education Foundation for younger children with a Kindergarten.

The district is undergoing big change, as reflected by the opening of a giant shopping mall called "Joy City" 朝阳大悦城, just next to Xinghuolu subway station. This is a brand new trendy destination for young Chinese people willing to go out and have fun. Access via Xinghuolu subway station on line 6.

To buy foreign food, there is a Carrefour shop on Yaojiayuan Lu, a Jenny Lou's on Yaojiayuan Beilu east of Chaoyang Park, an April Gourmet a little bit further west, 6 Gaoyang Gongyuan Nanlu.

A district with quick growth that has gotten closer to Beijing center since the opening of subway line 6. The place is ideal to rent a brand new apartment with more surface area and a more attractive rent.
