(Ecns.cn)！The Christmas season here may be blessed with fewer Western traditions than many foreigners might like, but it never fails to raise people's spirits for holiday revelry. To spice up the coming December 25th celebrations, why not get wild and check out a hot nightclub in your city?
Here's a list of some the hottest joints in Beijing and Shanghai, in case you're new to the area.
1) Coco Banana
The second installment of the Banana clubbing franchise, Coco Banana is among the highlights of the club-concentrated Gongti Xilu's nightlife, located on the west side of Workers' Stadium.
This glitzy dance club features a square bar and lounge areas around the dance floor, all with the same shining decor. It attracts a predominantly Chinese crowd with a techno and hard house music policy. Foreigners show up for the big name DJs who regularly stop in. With a small dance floor dotted with tables, the club gets extremely crowded. Better make a reservation.
Price: 1000RMB ($158) to get a table
Business Hours: Daily 8:30pm-late
Address: No. 8 Gongti Xilu, Chaoyang District, Beijing
Tel: 010-8599-9999
2) Chocolate Club
If you are ready for an eye-opening experience, it's recommended you pay a visit to the Chocolate Club, a Russian club with hot Russian dancers, live bands, the best DJs in town and fantastic shows every night.
Unlike Coco Banana where go-go dancers mingle on the dance floor, the Chocolate offers the unique service of throwing fancy private parties for customers. Holiday parties, pre-wedding parties for both men and women and children's birthday parties can all be had.
Price: Prices vary; 120RMB ($19) per cup of wine
