About accommodation

When I went to Beijing to play, I wanted to find a courtyard house to live in, but the location and transportation are very important when I go to play, because the place is too big. So this time I chose the Ruwan&183;Limu living room of Yinhai on Tujia. The transportation is very convenient. It is close to Jishuitan Station of Ji Subway. The high-speed rail station can be directly reached by subway. When you come out of the hotel, there are many buses that can take you to any place in Beijing. You can walk to the West Sea in a few minutes. Nearby attractions include Prince Gong's Mansion, Shichahai Park, etc. There are door frame alley century stewed stew (Xinjiekou store), Baoguang bacon and sole fire (Xinjiekou store), Qingfeng steamed stuffed bun shop and so on.


Beijing Limu Homestay


This is a video of the homestay I took, which can be seen intuitively.

"Limu Living Room" is a courtyard house located on the south bank of Shichahai West Sea, just like the calm West Sea, quiet like a virgin from a small family. The furniture decoration in the courtyard is all custom-made by Limutang with ancient mortise and tenon woodwork. Limutang was established in 2011 by Chen Zhiyuan, a craft inheritor, who graduated from the China Academy of Art and created the original design furniture brand of Limutang.

Check-in is easy, because it was booked online before, and on the day of check-in, I checked in directly at the courtyard house after calling to inquire. There are aunts cleaning the yard.

▲ There is an electric heater in the room, the air conditioner will be too dry, so the electric heater is more suitable. Of course, they can also be used together!

▲ There is a curved TV in the room, which is quite good, and the "materials" are really high-end and elegant.

▲There is also an air purifier in the room, which is still necessary in the face of Beijing's smog weather.

▲The bathroom supplies in the room are relatively high-end. TOTO’s washbasin and mirror with mirror light can illuminate your beauty.

▲There is a house in the yard that is a kitchen, which has everything in it, including a refrigerator, rice cooker, stove, toaster, coffee machine, oven, and even the water is 24-hour hot water, and the air conditioner is turned on 24 hours a day, so it will never be cold. There are also Arctic Ocean and yogurt in the refrigerator for guests to drink, which is very considerate.

▲ There are two free bottles of water in the room.

PS: There is a small coffee table when you enter the door. You can drink tea and play chess. There is a big table in the yard. It is a good choice to chat with friends under the warm sun. Playing cards and chess is a good choice.

about traffic

The specific itinerary is as follows:

In fact, this route can also go to Nanluoguxiang, but it is also a matter of time, and it has not been done. Pity. Next, take a rough look at the photos of this trip to Beijing.

The Beijing subway requires cash to purchase tickets and payment software to purchase tickets, apply for a card, and bind Alipay with a software called "Yitongxing" to enter the station.

This trip to Beijing. Time is tight, Jingshan Park did not see the panorama of the Forbidden City, a bit of a loss.

The specific itinerary is as follows:

Beijing Limu B&B→Tiananmen Square→Forbidden City→Jingshan Park→Prince Gong’s Mansion→Shichahai→Limu B&B

In fact, this route can also go to Nanluoguxiang, but it is also a matter of time, and it has not been done. Pity. Next, take a rough look at the photos of this trip to Beijing.

Jingshan Park


Jingshan Park is located in the north of the Forbidden City. It is the imperial garden of Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is a royal garden with beautiful environment. It has a history of more than 800 years. The middle peak of Jingshan Mountain is 44.6 meters high and is the center of the inner city of old Beijing. The pavilion on the middle peak is called "Wanchun Pavilion", which is a yellow glazed tile square pavilion with triple eaves. On both sides are two octagonal Biwa Pavilions with double eaves. The east side is called "Zhoushang" and the west side is called "Fulan". On the east and west sides are two circular blue tile pavilions with double eaves, which are called "Guanmiao" and "Jifang" respectively. Five pavilions form a group of beautiful patterns. There are tens of thousands of peonies, peonies and other flowers in Jingshan. There are peony exhibitions in spring, lotus exhibitions in summer, and autumn fruits and chrysanthemum exhibitions in autumn. There are colorful flowers in three seasons and evergreen pines and cypresses in four seasons. Jingshan Park is located on the central axis of Beijing City, covering an area of ​​23 hectares. It faces the Shenwumen of the Forbidden City in the south and Beihai Park in the west. Jingshan Mountain is 42.6 meters high and 88.35 meters above sea level. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can overlook the whole city, and you can have a panoramic view of the resplendent ancient Forbidden City and the modern Beijing city. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the state repaired the key buildings in Jingshan Park many times, paved mountain roads and garden roads, and reopened in 1955. In recent years, under the guidance of the policy of "building a garden with culture", the appearance of Jingshan Park has undergone great changes. The peony exhibition, lotus exhibition, autumn fruit and autumn chrysanthemum exhibition held every year, with their beautiful colors and warm environment , rich culture and distinctive features attract Chinese and foreign tourists. In 1998, the park restored the Vairocana Buddha (Dari Tathagata Buddha) in the Wanchun Pavilion, which was praised by Chinese and foreign tourists. Today, about 2 million Chinese and foreign tourists visit Jingshan Park every year, especially in August, September and October when the autumn is crisp and crisp. People come to Jingshan to climb high and look far away. The towering halls tell the vicissitudes of life; the new buildings show the future. Jingshan's unique culture, unique geographical location, and unique viewing angle make tourists stop and watch, lingering and forgetting to return.

Address: Xinjiekou Department Store, No. 65 Huguosi Snack Street

Recommended index: ★★★★★

Before I came to Beijing this time, I saw a restaurant that was highly recommended on the Internet, so I went there to eat. The restaurant is small, but there are quite a lot of people. There is a big restaurant next to it. I like small restaurants. Haha, the environment is average. , I competed with others and ordered fire and soup. The fire is a bit like Roujiamo, but it is still delicious. The skin is thin and crispy. I recommend this restaurant

Menjia Hutong Centennial Braised Cooking (Xinjiekou Branch)


Address: Exit B, Xinjiekou Station, Metro Line 4, No. 2, Zhaodengyu Road

Recommended index: ★★★★★

When you come to Beijing, you must eat stewed stew, and this is a century-old brand located just opposite the subway entrance. As soon as you enter the door, you will see a big pot. It is really big, steaming, and very down-to-earth. After dinner After ordering, there are still a lot of people. I want a bowl of stewed rice and a bottle of Arctic Ocean. It is definitely the standard for old Beijing snacks! The taste is very good, the taste is mellow, the large intestine alveoli, and the fire ingredients are sufficient, it is a feeling of happiness and satisfaction.

Old Beijing Hawthorn Square


Address: Xinjiekou Department Store, No. 32 South Street

Recommended index: ★★★★

How can you not eat candied haws when you come to Beijing? I passed by and saw this store. There are a lot of hawthorn products. They look delicious, but I have been recommending another one on the Internet. With the mentality of giving it a try, I am quite satisfied with the result. Sweet, the hawthorn has been heart-removed, there is no core, it is very convenient to eat, the skin is crispy, and the combination of sweet and sour is just right

Yongle Restaurant

Address: No. 67-3, Ande Road (at the entrance of Liupu Kang Er Lane)

Recommended index: ★★★★

How can you not eat Peking duck when you arrive in Beijing? Go to Yongle Restaurant to eat roast duck tonight. We ordered a full set of high-quality fruit wood roast duck. Our hearts were too fierce. Even if two people are very hungry, a little bit is enough, because the roast duck is really greasy, especially for the first time. The duck skin is very large, and there are only a few in Hangzhou. A few pieces

There are three meals for Beijing Roast Duck (only if you order a full set, there are three meals)

The first time you eat it, the duck skin is dipped in white sugar. The duck skin is crispy and soft, and the oil will be absorbed by the white sugar. It tastes like a mouthful of oil.

The second meal: Lean meat with pancakes, I feel that the lean meat is a bit dry, and the sweet bean sauce on top is quite good when sandwiched into the pancakes, but it is really full.

The third meal is the most common and my favorite. The duck meat with skin is dipped in sweet noodle sauce and served with scallions, and the radish sticks are wrapped in noodle cakes. Their noodle cakes are neither dry nor wet.

Finally, I want to say that this full set of high-quality fruit wood roast duck can’t be eaten by two people. At this price, you can only order half a set at other places. This store is very cost-effective.

Another soup is also good
