Step into Daxing Hutong and time-travel to old Beijing! This maze of grey-tiled courtyard houses hides authentic local life – spot grandpas fanning themselves on stoops, catch whiffs of jasmine tea from hidden courtyards. The chorus of crickets and bicycle bells paints the soundtrack of this cinematic alley (fun fact: it's featured in films like 'Farewell My Concubine'). Don't miss the 100-year-old jujube tree; locals swear rubbing its bark brings luck!
