Chaoyangmen

The first building north west of Chaoyangmen Bridge is the headquarters of CNOOC Group.

The second building westwards is Beijing's most famous "haunted houses", two French-style villas at 81 Chaoyangmen Nei.

[2] The main villa was formerly the residence of the French manager of the Pinghan Railway Company until 1947, thereafter it became the offices of various government works[3] until closed pending demolition in the 1990s.

Chaoyangmen Outer Street also begins east of the overpass, leading to the Chaowai area.

China's Foreign Ministry building is situated to the southeastern part of the overpass bridge and roundabout.
