Step into Chuandian Hutong where old Beijing comes alive! This centuries-old alley hides grey-brick courtyards behind modern skyscrapers, with the aroma of fried sauce noodles wafting from family-run eateries. Morning soybean milk stalls and retirees playing Chinese chess at dusk will transport you to 1980s Beijing. Don't miss the legendary offal stew shop at the entrance - that richly-spiced broth has warmed locals' hearts for generations.
