Mensaje de nuestro corresponsal:
Beijing tiene una comunidad de salseros que crece constantemente todos los días. Me quedé asombrado al visitar por primera vez la ciudad cuando descubrí por casualidad un bar donde se escuchaba la salsa dura. Al entrar me encontré con bailadores chinos en la pista, bailando como si estuvieran en Miami o Nueva York. Hay varios bares, así como bastantes instructores de baile. Los turistas visitando a Beijing pueden ponerse en contacto conmigo por email. Si tengo disponibilidad, les daré una gira del verdadero "Chinatown".
Message from our Correspondent:
Beijing has an ever-increasing salsa community. I was surprised to find a salsa club where they listen to "Salsa Dura" when I first visited over a year ago, and I saw Chinese people dancing salsa, as if they were in New York or Miami. There are several clubs to choose from, and plenty of qualified dance instructors. Those visiting Beijing feel free to contact me through email.
Based on my availability, I'll give you a back stage tour of the real Chinatown.
