Description

CCC's own guide will lead you around the hutongs and courtyards in Xuanwu District, south of Beijing, where you will see more authentic alleys and courtyard houses, and the real life of Beijingers, visit some local homes in the neighborhood for a chat with residents, check out a small vegetable market, and visit a kindergarten to meet cute little kids, and end up with strolling and shopping along the famous Liulichang Cultural Street (arts & crafts and antiques, real and fake alike, no forced shopping, but it is nice for visitors to take a walk at the old cultural street).

The walk and ride along the old alleyways in the neighborhood provide you an opportunity to see in the central captial in this rapidly changing country that some Beijing residents's lifestyle and living environment haven't changed much. It is in sharp contrast with those Beijingers wo move into the highrises. You will see locals doing all different trades and houseworks

Price: RMB 150 (includes pedicab and all other costs)
