Dacaochang Hutong

Step into Dacaochang Hutong, where Beijing's soul thrives between grey-brick courtyards and bamboo poles draped with laundry. Time stands still as neighbors sip jasmine tea in alleyway teahouses, and the clatter of mahjong tiles mixes with old-timers' laughter. Don't miss the hidden courtyard workshops – this is the real deal of old Peking!
