For old Beijing, the brick walls and rubble in the hutongs enshrine a strong nostalgia; for outsiders, the hutongs carry a unique cultural charm. Strolling in the alleys, living in a courtyard house, teasing the stalk of "Shangfang Jiewa", savoring the moment when the taste of Beijing overlaps with the time and space of the bustling city, I suddenly stopped and shouted, "Have you eaten? Are you inside?"
Deep hidden alleys infuse Beijing's fireworks
Located in Beiluogu Lane, the place of Yixi, is a Xichang that "grows" in the old Beijing Hutong. Xichang, known as the Moon City, is surrounded by courtyards. The guest rooms are designed with skylights. On a night when the moon is bright and the stars are scarce, you can see the bright moon hanging in the sky and the stars shining, which perfectly presents the "wonderful alley-the moon is full of the North Gong" concept of design. Squeeze a small cup of tea, and recite the sentence of Du Fu, "Lu Cong is white tonight, and the moon is the light of my hometown." The sorrow of separation and the cuddling with the lover at this time can shape the artistic conception in an instant... No wonder you come here to taste life Most of them are couples or girlfriends who like romance.
Passing through Nanluoguxiang and going northwards to Beiluoguxiang, the commercial atmosphere has been weakened a lot, and the courtyards spread the smoke and fire of old Beijing life in the streets and alleys. Pushing open the red door at the place of Yi seats, two-entry courtyards appear in front of you, with regular squares and patios in the inner courtyards, forming a special space of a unique double-layer alley. Reasonable space planning separates the dining and accommodation space, which has a high safety factor and protects the privacy of guests, which can be said to be very considerate.
Romantic creation of architecture and atmosphere
The overall design of the small courtyard creates an atmosphere from the perspective of "two courtyards, three paths, and four surroundings".
🍬 - "Two Houses"
The quadrangle courtyard with two entrances, the function of the front yard is the catering function of the upper and lower floors above and below the ground for external business; the back yard is dug into a double-layer atrium space, and the guest rooms are unified and organized here, which is a homestay space.
When it comes to winter, the front yard, which is enlivened by Shanzhen hot pot and exquisite afternoon tea, attracts more and more attention.
Shanzhen Hot Pot
Nutritious soup + Shanzhen health-preserving hot pot is probably the best food for tonic in autumn and winter. The Shanzhen hot pot in Yixi place is made with Daliangshan free-range chicken and the soup is delicious. Drink the soup and eat chicken before cooking. , and then cook as many as ten kinds of fungi 🍄 picked and airlifted from Liangshan on the same day, with high-quality meat, meatballs, green vegetables, etc., dipped in secret sauce, warming up and nourishing.
️Afternoon tea
The time when autumn and winter meet is also the most beautiful season in Beijing’s Hutong courtyards—ginkgo biloba leaves are falling and red leaves are falling, and orange persimmons are hanging on trees. Sitting in a courtyard with red walls and blue tiles, drinking afternoon tea. If you feel that the warm sun in early winter cannot warm you up, you can book the pavilion in the front yard in advance. The floor-to-ceiling glass windows will not affect the pleasure of viewing the scenery in the slightest.

Tea: Princess Xiangxue, Tibetan tea, Yunnan Dianhong, etc.

🍬-"Three Paths"
Corridors are implanted in the courtyard to unify the front and rear courtyard spaces, forming a spatial sequence of three levels of paths connecting the sky, the ground, and the underground. It has formed three levels of ascending to look far, walking through alleys, and exploring underground, which increases the richness of space experience. Create more Internet celebrity spaces suitable for taking pictures, and you can also experience the fun of "revealing the tiles on the house".
🍬-"Four Realms"
"️Drink on the moon"
Entering the first courtyard, there was a crabapple flower and a magnolia flower in the courtyard, which symbolized the wealth and wealth of Yutang. In the design, two circular light wells are used as the moon and the landscape point lighting design makes the entire courtyard exist like a night sky at night. The whole place surrounds the atrium night sky to form a scene of "drinking on the moon".
"️ Moon Gate Bamboo Appreciation"
The moon gate is the main traffic node connecting the first yard and the second yard, and this moon gate is also the core arterial linking ground traffic and roof traffic. Taking the red moon and green bamboo as the scenery, it evokes the situation of "appreciating bamboo at the moon gate" for passers-by.
"Mirror Flower Water Moon"
The second yard is a relatively private guest room area. The whole space is a special courtyard space surrounded by a sunken courtyard in the middle. There are 12 guest rooms in the two-story courtyard, and the room numbers are named after the twelve months of the year.
The whole place is designed with the scene construction design of "flowers in the mirror, moon in the water", each guest room faces the patio for lighting, the inner courtyard on the lower floor is designed as a still water pool surface, reflecting the moon, and the begonia flower gallery is designed as an outdoor rest space at the aisle on the first floor.
There are two main types of guest rooms, one is a parent-child room, which has two beds upstairs and downstairs, and the other is a double bed room, which is comfortable and warm. No matter what type of room it is, floor heating is used for heating, and the bed also has a heating function. It can also resist the severe cold in the cold winter months of Beijing.
"The moon in the hallway"
In addition to the three places with the moon as the main scene, the design of the "moon" element that can be seen randomly in the entire experience streamline is also a situation arranged in the design. Friends can look for the elements of the moon when checking in, which virtually adds more fun to your living time.
Astronomers say that the moon is just an ordinary planet in the universe, and it can't even emit light by itself.
But for thousands of years, when human beings look up at the sky and see the bright moon in the sky, the moon is not just a moon.
Taking the moon as the theme, we created a wonderland in the courtyard, in order to create a situation in people's hearts and create a romantic holiday time atmosphere.
