What interesting shops and hutongs in Beijing are suitable for visiting on weekends?

Hutongs in Beijing are very rich, forming different commercial settlements. I like visiting hutongs with many interesting shops best, among which Wudaoying Hutong and Yangmeizhu Xie Jie are my favorites.

There are many interesting small shops in many other hutong areas in Beijing. Ah Hu's focus today is Wudaoying Hutong and Yangmeizhu in Xie Jie.

Walking with friends in Wudaoying Hutong on weekend night seems to be exploring the unique charm of old Beijing, and I can't help but be attracted by the unique atmosphere here. In this alley, there are many treasure shops waiting to be discovered. The following are some shops that I personally think are great, hoping to provide you with reference:

Small accent: This toy store is full of egg twisters, which is a paradise for friends who like to twist eggs. The choice is very rich.

The total length of Yangmeizhu Xie Jie is only 496 meters, but in this short 500 meters, there are countless art shops hidden.
