Come to Beijing in early autumn, don't miss the Hutong Walk!  Not only beautiful, but also runs through Beijing's history and modernity, a super unique experience! It's perfect for a person to walk around for an afternoon! My route is 😗 ▶️Gulou—▶️Beiluoguxiang—▶️Shichahai—▶️Dongjiaominxiang  This route is the essence of Beijing's Hutong culture🧐 Under the subway Gulou Street, don't miss the punch-in at Gulou East Street, it's very Beijing-flavored!  Compared with Nanluoguxiang, Beiluoguxiang is more peaceful and suitable for a leisurely walk. Shichahai is the only open scenic spot with open water in the inner city of Beijing. The boat ride in autumn is beautiful! You can also come to skate in winter!  Dongjiaominxiang is the longest Hutong in Beijing. There are many Western buildings along the way, which is suitable for quietly feeling the history😭 ❤️tips❤️  - The whole journey is about 5km. Wear comfortable shoes, and the sun in Beijing may be very strong, remember to take sunscreen. -There are many photographers on Gulou Street. If you go out alone, you don’t have to worry about no one taking photos📸 - There are many specialty coffees along the way☕, I have sorted them out and put them in Figure 3, 🉑 Save it! - Yandaixie Street is right next to the Gulou, and there are many places selling small items inside, so it’s a good place to go shopping!
