Plan your Beijing tour? If you are a drive-in fan, Beijing will not let you down. A drive-in theater is an outdoor cinema with a large movie screen and a large parking lot for automobiles.
People are able to watch movies from their cars with privacy and comfort. The first drive-in was created by Richard M. Hollingshead, Jr. in the United Stated. He opened the first drive-in theater in his backyard in New Jersey June 6, 1933. The drive-in quickly spread to the world and gained much popularity.
In Beijing there are two main drive-ins: Maple Drive-in Theater and Cowboy Drive-in Theater.

Dear sir or madam,
My name is Juliane Spaete. I’m currently working as a photo editor for
Smart Magazine.
We are working on an article about open air cinemas and we’ll feature
The Maple Drive In in it.
Would it be possible to get the image on your website in high resolution to
support the article?
Also do you have an English speaking contact for the Maple Drive In for me?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
Juliane Spaete
