Hi, does anyone know what happened to hobby store in 10 Daliubukou in Beijing (near Xidan station)?
Many thanks in advance, it was one of the best in town.
Any other hints of stores besides the one near Ping'an?
Regards to all

Have a look at this link. They give a few hobby shops in Beijing.

I will ask to my friend if the shop is still there or what happened to it. I know they moved from nearby to Daliubukou around 2012.

Maybe you could try going another day and check if you had bad luck with it being closed at the time you went. Beware that they open late (I think it is 11:00) and they close around 19:00.

Regards,

thank you.
I will try to go again, however it seemed as if the shop was gone for good. no signs, logos, packages like it was a year ago in July.

and by chance - could you please give me an exact location of this shop on a map? Bridge Model: No.198 Fangjia Village, Guangqu East Road
I've been there looking for the place in 2016, but I found a simple village without any sign even of a number 198.
any help will be good.
