Beijing Hutong culture tour
After your lunch, you will continue your trip to Beijing Hutongs which are alleys formed by lines of Siheyuan, traditional courtyard residences. The name Hutong comes from the Mongolian word for ‘well’ because historically people would build their homes close to or around a well. Nowadays Hutong means a lane or alleyway. Hutong is an important element of Beijing culture. Due to Beijing's long history and status as capital for six dynasties, almost every Hutong has its anecdotes, and some are even associated with grand historic events. Different from the royal life and illustrious culture represented by the Forbidden City, the Hutongs reflect the culture of grassroots Beijingers. Till now, there still have many residents. When you walk into the Hutongs, you can experience what the street life of old Beijingers look like and a short visit of a Hutong family will show you what their house and life like.
