Why Beijing Xixiangbu Hutong is a combination of tradition and modernity, looking across the China World Trade Center and China Zun in the old Beijing Hutong?

Traveling in Beijing should go to Xixiangbu Hutong, which combines tradition and modernity!

Famous writer Wang Zengqi once said: "Beijing city is like a big piece of tofu, four square and four square. There are streets and hutongs in the city," the hutongs are the veins of the city, the place of life, the direction of home, but also the essence of Beijing culture.

The foot of the Imperial City is dotted with a variety of characteristics of the hutongs, each hutong has a unique humanities, open belly cool moncler, childish children, parents and grandmothers and so on. Sometimes, the hutongs are also a special viewpoint from which you can see the skyscrapers in the distance. For example, Beijing's Xishangbu Hutong.

West General Cloth Hutong, known as one of the 10 most beautiful streets in Beijing, the hutong from west to east for one-way traffic, driving partners pay attention.

Native Beijingers are familiar with the hutongs in front of their homes, and know its past and interesting stories as if they were their own, full of deep hutong complex. Xishangbu Hutong is located about 200 meters north of Dongdan subway station in Dongcheng District, with Peking Union Medical College Hospital on the west side of the hutong, near Wangfujing Pedestrian Street, and Chang'an Street not far to the south.

The contrast between the old and the new changes in the urban area of Beijing, I very much like the contrast between the hutongs and the CBD, and both start with the extension of the West General Cloth Hutong, and the end of the end of the CBD (China Zun and other mansion buildings). This time it was the Beijing CBD that was the main focus and found Xizhongbu Hutong. This location allows you to see China Zun from a distance through the hutong!
