Dengshikou

Step into Dengshikou and be transported to old Beijing of Ming-Qing era! This historic street was once famous for lantern markets, where you can still spot traditional lantern crafts tucked in alleys. By day, explore hutong courtyards blending gray-brick charm with hipster cafes; at night, follow the aroma of stewed offal snacks and candied hawthorns from street stalls—the ultimate way to taste authentic local life while wandering under nostalgic neon lights.
