Hutong is an ancient urban alley unique to Beijing. Therefore, some people call Beijing’s ancient capital culture as “hutong culture” or “four courtyard culture”. People in Beijing are often not interested in the tall buildings, but the small alleys with twists and turns, and those warm and beautiful courtyards. The old Beijing Hutong Tour includes the oldest Beijing-style hutongs such as Wudaoying, Nanluoguxiang, Guozijian, and Yandai Xiejie, which are worth a visit. Sitting on the original human rickshaw, or riding a bicycle in the alley to experience the most authentic old Beijing Hutong culture, it is an interesting thing.
Yangmeizhu Xiejie is an alley connecting Dashanlan and Liulichang East Street. It shoulders the most prosperous place in old Beijing. It has attracted many intellectuals and is also a famous place in the Republic of China. In front of the Shichahai, the north-south is an east-west hutong. The houses on both sides of the hutong are relatively neat. If you choose a rickshaw to travel the hutong, then this is the place where the “hutong tour” must pass.

However, it must be remembered that at the top floor, there will be a staff member who will ask you for a small ticket, and then make a photo album for you, which costs 200 Yuan for 6 pieces of photos. Do not spend such money, as the photos taken with your mobile phone camera are much better than the real ones.
