Why choose this Beijing tour ?
As a girl who grew up in a former Prince Mansion (although I am not a Princess 🙂 I feel very attached to Ancient Chinese Architecture and have explored many hidden gems in Beijing. They are like my old house.
Many “old houses” are disappearing in Beijing, together with hutongs. I want to share with you its beauty, the way of life and the heartwarming people in the hutongs!
