Gongmei Emporium, Arts and crafts shopping center in Wangfujing, Beijing, China
Gongmei Emporium is a shopping and exhibition center in Beijing spanning multiple floors with traditional Chinese handicrafts including ceramics, textiles, jade carvings, and decorative art objects. The space houses a wide selection of handmade items across different craft traditions.
The building sits in Donghuamen Subdistrict, which evolved from part of the inner districts and became incorporated into Dongcheng District in 1949. This geographic change reflects Beijing's urban transformations during that era.
The space displays handicraft techniques passed down through generations of Chinese artisans and their role in everyday cultural expression. Visitors witness how these traditional skills continue to shape local identity and artistic practice.
The center sits near public transportation hubs and opens daily from morning through evening. Visitors should expect that price negotiations are common practice for most purchases.
Each floor features specialized workshops where visitors can watch craftspeople creating traditional Chinese arts in real time. These live demonstrations reveal the exact techniques and methods that have been handed down over time.
