Third Time’s a Charm: ChinaDoll Re-Opens Once Again

Since they first opened in 2008 just before the Olympic Games, ChinaDoll 3.3 has undergone renovations and adjustments quite a few times.

Their third Re-Opening party, tonight ChinaDoll hosted a soft-opening party for their Sky Bar.

Other than The Beach (Block8) & Kokomo, Sky Bar is one of the few rooftop bars in Beijing that boasts such a big space and in my opinion, very closely resembles The Beach’s style, but instead of sand, they feature a shallow water tank.

Scoping out the crowd, spotting the model crew and checking out the VIP section with their plush sofa chairs, I conclude that Sky Bar’s scene is very much a mash-up of Suzie Wong’s and Xiu (Park Hyatt).

Sponsored by Cointreau, the event featured Lady Gaga impersonator performances (which included 2 Lady Gagas & 1 Man Gaga) and girls dancing in water tanks (another idea “borrowed” from Block 8).

A spacious, outdoor rooftop venue with a long, fully-stocked bar, DJ and dance floor, along with lounge couches, sofas and round tables surrounding a water tank in the center of the space and a mermaid on the side with a big screen showing the World Cup in the back, this outdoor venue is about to give The Beach at Block 8 a run for their money.
