preamble

This trip is in August, a total of 7 days journey. The main reason was to see the capital city before the military parade, and to do some errands by the way, so I hurried there with my family.

Tips:

1. Due to current restrictions, the Forbidden City, the Badaling Great Wall, and the National Museum all need to be booked two to three days in advance, otherwise there will be no tickets.

2. Thanks to the well-developed buses and subways in Beijing, and government subsidies for tickets to scenic spots, almost all scenic spots are priced within 100 yuan, and the transportation is very convenient. Each scenic spot has a state-subsidized special line or a bus that can reach it. It takes an hour and a half to drive to the Ming Tombs for a total of 60 to 70 kilometers, which is only ¥4.5.

As for some small tips or schedules for each other place, they will be mentioned one by one later.

3. Don't believe those tour groups that cost 100 yuan or less to go to the Forbidden City and Badaling Great Wall for a day trip, not to mention the fare, even the tickets are not enough, the content can be imagined. As for how to get to the Badaling Great Wall and the Ming Tombs for tens of kilometers, there will be guidance in the following article.

4. Because many places, especially those that need to get up early, are all around Tiananmen Square, so accommodation can be booked near Tiananmen Square.

As for other small tips, they will be mentioned at the end of each small paragraph. They are personal opinions and may not be the best, but they are the most convenient for personal experience and can be used for reference.

Day 1 Arrive in Beijing, chic ancient alleys, lively Houhai

Since the booked air ticket arrived at 1:00 noon, I arrived relatively early. After putting away my luggage, I arranged a tour from Nanluoguxiang to Houhai Pedestrian Street.

Nanluoguxiang is a representative of Beijing Hutong, and it is also a pedestrian commercial street. Apart from the scenic spots, Beijing is famous for Hutong, so it can be said to be one of the must-see places.

In addition to the commercial street, there are many hutongs of different ages in the ancient alleys. Many ancient courtyards on both sides of the hutongs are still inhabited. They may be disturbed a bit too much, and some of them will hang the words "Do Not Disturb" on the door. . Most of the houses in the alleys are not as glamorous as they appear on the outside. There are quite a few dilapidated ones, but there are also a few well-decorated ones. I think there are probably two reasons for this. One is the old Beijing that stayed here a long time ago, and I am used to it, so I didn’t do any extra renovations; the other is that there is a yard in these places, and there is no shortage of money, so it seems to be a no-brainer to do some renovations.

Behind Nanluoguxiang is the Bell Tower, Drum Tower, Yandai Xiejie, and Houhai Pedestrian Street. If you are not in a hurry, you can go shopping together.

On the road from Nanluoguxiang to Gulou, there are some shops selling marine life and pets. They sell some rare species, such as Canadian hairless cats, corals and jellyfish. Those who are interested can also watch them.

Yandai Xiejie is similar to Nanluoguxiang, but Yandai Xiejie is very short, and there are no special alleys or scenic spots. Most of them are commercial in nature, and it is a place with more choices for buying souvenirs.

As for Houhai Pedestrian Street, I feel that it can be both moving and quiet. It is recommended to arrange to play at night. If you like quiet, you can go boating on the Shicha Sea, even if you stand quietly on the Yinding Bridge, you can feel the tranquility of this place; if you like lively, the bar street here is a place not to be missed. As for which one? It is not known which is the most affordable.

Tips:

Today's route arrangement is Nanluoguxiang → Bell Tower → Yandai Xiejie → Drum Tower → Yinding Bridge → Houhai Pedestrian Street. There is no turning back on the route, and it is not too tiring. If the tour time is not too long, it is basically just right. It is the afternoon of Nanluoguxiang, Bell Tower and Drum Tower, and the evening of Houhai, all of which are at their most beautiful. If you want to arrange something in the morning, the Beihai Park next to it can be a good choice.

Day 2 Blessed palace, offering sacrifices to the treasures of heaven and earth

Prince Gong's Mansion is on the left side of Shichahai, and it bears an extremely rich historical heritage. There is a saying that there is a Prince Gong's Mansion, which is half of the history of the Qing Dynasty.

This was once the residence of Heshen, Yonglin and Prince Gong Yixin. When its first owner Heshen built it, many structures related to Fengshui were added.

For example, it is said that this place is located in the dragon vein of the capital, which belongs to the treasure land of geomantic omen; for example, there are a total of 9,999 characters and accessories related to the word "Fu" in the whole mansion, plus Kangxi's number one blessing in the world, forming Wanfu; Two long corridors are built on both sides, and there are only two stairs at the bottom. The other is a slope that goes up all the way, implying two twists and turns when you were young. On one side, directly cross the two stairs, walk to the top in one breath, and then remember not to go down on the other side, go down other paths and so on.

It may be because there is indeed a set of ancient architectural techniques, or it is true that it is like the legend because this is a place of geomantic omen. After entering, it is really refreshing. The air-conditioned souvenirs and snacks are sold in the original building. The newly built huts here are much cooler, and this phenomenon is basically the same in other palace buildings. There are many such allusions and Fengshui-related stories, and each paragraph is almost fascinating. Maybe I have always been interested in this aspect, so I think this is almost the most attractive attraction in the past few days.

After Prince Kung’s Mansion, we visited the Temple of Heaven. It would take about half a day to visit the Temple of Heaven. The place where the ancient emperors worshiped the heavens and prayed for grain and rain is also the only existing large-scale building that is not built on the central axis of Beijing.

Because Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, built the Temple of Heaven when he built the Temple of Heaven to worship heaven and earth together. The Temple of Heaven and Earth is located on the east side of the central axis. The symmetrical relationship between the east and west sides of the axis. However, during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Jiajing changed the Temple of Heaven and Earth to the Temple of Heaven and worshiped heaven alone. Therefore, the Temple of Heaven is not located on the central axis of Beijing.

The Temple of Heaven was built according to the style of Tianyuan, so it can be seen from the bird's-eye view that the place for sacrifices below is square, and the dormitory of the gods above, the temporary residence of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest, is circular.

There is a Tianxin Stone on the Circular Mound Altar of the Temple of Heaven. Because it is located in the center of the circle and the distance from the surrounding white marble is equal, it will produce an echo when the sound propagates. Because the distance is so close, people cannot distinguish the echo from their own voice. , so it sounds like the sound will be doubled. When the ancient emperors offered sacrifices to heaven, they believed that this phenomenon was a manifestation of being ordered by heaven and being the darling of heaven. Also miraculous are the Three-tone Stone and the Whispering Wall, which belong to the world's three acoustic miracles and are built in the Temple of Heaven.

I won’t mention the specific introduction here, but listen to the explanation step by step and experience it by yourself.

Tips:

There is an hour's drive between these two scenic spots, just because I am more interested in Prince Kung's Mansion, so I have more time to arrange, this is not the recommended route. You can arrange a more appropriate itinerary by yourself.

Day 3 The sigh of the past, the garden of ten thousand gardens

A place I have seen in textbooks since I was a child, with ruined walls and devastated, seems to be synonymous with this place. Even today, many years later, after some repairs, it is enough to see the tragedy at that time, and it is also possible to imagine how magnificent the Old Summer Palace was before it was destroyed. It happened to be raining again on the day we visited, which seemed to add another depression to this place.

If you visit during the lotus season, you will find that the most common lotus in the Yuanmingyuan is the lotus, which covers almost all corners, which seems to bring a little bit of vitality to this scarred place.

The general direction of browsing the scenic spot is to enter from the South Gate, or enter from the Dagong Gate. The most famous attractions, Dashuifa, Labyrinth, Fanghu Scenic Spot and Haiyan Hall are all near the Xiyanglou Scenic Spot, marked with yellow circles.

The location of the red circle is the station of the ruins. You can skip some scenic spots that are not very interesting by taking the scenic battery car. Because it was basically destroyed by the fire, there are only foundations left in many places, and even lawns have regrown in some places. There is no explanation or hint, and I don’t know what was there before.

Of course, if you are more interested in ancient history like the author, you can also spend a day with explanations to understand each place. In this case, basically one day is barely enough.

As for the Summer Palace, if you can spend a day browsing it, the best route, I think, should be to enter from the east gate, and browse some famous scenic spots first, Wenchangyuan, Deheyuan, Leshoutang, Yunhui Yuyu Archway, After Paiyun Gate, Paiyun Temple, Foxiang Pavilion, Wisdom Sea, Sibuzhou and Suzhou Street, take a boat from Suzhou Street to enjoy Kunming Lake along the waterway, then return to Nanhu Island and the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, and finally from the new The palace gate leaves the garden. In this way, you can not only see the garden style of the Summer Palace on land, but also see the beauty of the Summer Palace on the water.

Tips:

Here, the Old Summer Palace and the Summer Palace are bundled together to give another route in one day, mainly considering a visiting mode for tourists who are pressed for time.

Because these two scenic spots are relatively close to each other, if you spend two visits, it will take a lot of time on the road. In addition, the scenic spot is very large. If you take it out and savor it carefully, you may not be able to finish one of the gardens in two days, but if you only look at them The essence of the point, one day is enough.

The specific route is as follows: first enter from the south gate of the Old Summer Palace in the morning (the route is shown in the picture), after seeing the more famous scenic spots near the Western Building, choose to take the electric car directly, listen to some simple explanations on the car along the way, and then go out Garden (the station on the left side of the lake can visit Dagongmen along the way, and then walk southwest out of the garden, or take the bus directly to the lower left corner station (Zaoyuanmen station) and leave the park directly from the Southwest Palace Gate), and then walk ten minutes outside the scenic spot , you can reach the North Palace Gate of the Summer Palace, start browsing from the North Palace Gate (the route is shown in the picture), and turn back to the newly built Palace Gate next to the Seventeen-Arch Bridge to exit the garden after arriving at Nanhu Island.

{data:{has_more:true,html:

Of course, if you have time, it is recommended to start visiting from Dongmen Square. If you enter from Beigongmen, you will often find that the first thing you see is the back of some buildings, because Beigongmen is the back door of the Summer Palace.

Careful readers may find that whether it is visiting the Summer Palace after the Old Summer Palace, or returning from the waterway after browsing, or going directly from the back door to the front door, all these arrangements are to put the Seventeen-Arch Bridge in the Visit at the end of the afternoon. The reason is that this masterpiece of ancient Han bridge architecture has been carefully designed and calculated by the designer, so that the bridge is perpendicular to the sunset point of the Tropic of Capricornus, so only at sunset will the afterglow of the setting sun illuminate all of its buildings. The hole presents the unique golden light piercing spectacle of the Seventeen-Arch Bridge. The first golden light piercing spectacle every year almost attracts thousands of photographers waiting here. It is conceivable that the spectacle is spectacular.

Day 4 National Glory

When you arrive in Beijing, there are some places, the author thinks, even if you don’t visit a few scenic spots, you must go there.

The first thing to talk about is the flag-raising ceremony at the flag-raising platform in Tiananmen Square. The flag-raising ceremony is held at the time of sunrise every day. The national flag rises together with the sun. At that time, there will be a guard of honor from the three armed forces. If it is the big flag-raising ceremony on the 1st of each month, a military band will also participate.

Every day from very early in the morning, it becomes extremely lively here. Some people even stay here all night in order to get to the nearest distance to see the flag-raising ceremony. When we went for the first time, we arrived at the square at 4:30 in the evening. The national anthem we heard when the flag was raised was mainly due to the far away place in our mind. The second time we went to see it was Arrived at the square around three o'clock, and barely managed to grab a front row seat on the edge, so if you want to see it, you must not sleep in, come as early as possible, otherwise you will get up early in vain. As for the specific route and the best location to observe the ceremony, it will be mentioned at the end of this section.

The flag-raising ceremony started from the Waijinshui Bridge in front of the Tiananmen Gate and walked to the flag-raising platform. There were 138 steps in the middle. The national flag was raised from the flag-raising platform to 28.3 meters, and it took a total of 2 minutes and 07 seconds.

As for why it is 28.3 meters instead of rising to the top, it is because the Communist Party of China was founded in July 1921, and the new China was founded in October 1949. The difference between them is exactly 28 years and 3 months. Let us keep this history in mind and express our high respect for New China.

The Monument to the People's Heroes is 37.94 meters high and weighs 103 tons. It is engraved with the words "People's Heroes, Immortal" written by Chairman Mao.

The main building of Chairman Mao Memorial Hall is 105.5 meters long and 33.6 meters high, with a construction area of ​​33,867 square meters. In this magnificent palace, which has attracted worldwide attention, the remains of Chairman Mao Zedong, the founder of the Communist Party of China, the Chinese People's Liberation Army and the People's Republic of China, are placed.

These 103 tons and 33,867 square meters carry the weight of the lives of countless revolutionary martyrs who have paid for the country, so I hope that tourists who visit the monument or visit the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall can bring a respectful heart Remembrance heart.

The Great Hall of the People is the meeting place of the National People's Congress of China and the office of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. It is an important place for the party, the state and various people's organizations to hold political activities, and it is also a place for Chinese party and state leaders and the people to hold political, diplomatic and cultural activities.

It is also the place shown behind the one hundred RMB.

The Forbidden City is known as the first of the five largest palaces in the world. The royal palaces of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, formerly known as the Forbidden City, are located on the central axis of Beijing. It is centered on the three halls, covering an area of ​​720,000 square meters and a construction area of ​​about 150,000 square meters. There are more than 70 palaces and palaces, and more than 9,000 houses. It is one of the largest and best-preserved wooden structure ancient buildings in the world. Perhaps it is also because the Forbidden City is located on the central axis of Beijing, making Beijing the only axisymmetric city in the world.

The Qianqing Palace is the essence of the Forbidden City, where the emperor handles daily government affairs in the Forbidden City. Qian means heaven, and clear means thorough. First, it symbolizes a clear sky, neither muddy nor muddy, and symbolizes the stability of the country; .

The Qianqing Palace has been burned down several times over the years, and the existing Qianqing Palace was rebuilt during the Jiaqing period.

The third dragon on the left has a stone with a different color from the others. According to legend, the craftsman accidentally broke one of the glazed tiles when building the Nine Dragon Wall. It is no small matter, so I carved the patterns with nanmu, painted it with white paint, and let it go by. After so many years of wind and rain erosion, it has become dull and dull.

The Treasure Hall and Clock Hall house collections from the Ming and Qing dynasties, most of which are made of gold and jade, which are extremely luxurious. If you have time, you must buy a ticket to visit. The Treasure Hall is mostly jade, gold, and wearable and daily necessities, while the Clock Hall is filled with imported products such as clocks and watches.

After coming out of Shenwumen, there is Jingshan Park. Please take some time to come here. Basically all the aerial views of the Forbidden City are taken from Jingshan Park, and you can also see the White Tower and other buildings in Beihai Park. This is the commanding height of all surrounding buildings and the center of Beijing. It is also the place where Chongzhen hanged himself.

Tips:

The suggested itinerary sequence is roughly as follows: Tiananmen Square Flag Raising Ceremony→Chairman Mao Memorial Hall→Monument to the People’s Heroes→Great Hall of the People→National Museum of China→Forbidden City→Jingshan Park. The main reason for the arrangement is that these places are all on the same central axis, and they all need to start queuing very early. If you go a little late, it may take a long time, as shown in the figure below.

1. The first suggestion is that since the flag-raising ceremony is very early, if you are afraid of being hungry, prepare a small amount of water and dry food (the amount that can be eaten) in advance. If you are not afraid, it is recommended to come out to eat after visiting the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall , there are some convenience spots in the square where you can buy them, and try not to bring bags, vests, or slippers.

The reason lies in the following two points: First, the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, the Great Hall of the People, and the National Museum are not allowed to bring liquids, food, and fire into the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall. It is allowed to bring in, and there are also requirements for attire. 2. Even though there is a storage place next to the National Museum, the opening time of the storage is relatively late. If you visit it after depositing it, it may take a long time to wait.

2. As mentioned above, the flag-raising ceremony must arrive very early.

If you are early enough, it is recommended to observe the ceremony on the north side. The viewing platform here is on the left and right sides of the Jinshui Bridge outside. You can see it clearly from the moment the flag raising team comes out, but it is a little far away when the national flag is raised. For the north side, enter from the left and right sides of the viewing platform. The security check will start at about 4:00 in the morning. After the security check, you can go directly to the vicinity of the viewing platform. At that time, the subway station entrances to the east and west of Tiananmen Square will be closed.

If you don’t get up so early, or you come early and find that the north side is already full of people, then watching the ceremony on the south side is also a good choice. The entrance to the square on the south side is on the left and right sides of the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall. It is a little far away. First pass through the security check, then go north to reach the two sides of the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall. You need to wait again, waiting for the staff to take Chairman Mao After the queuing facilities of the memorial hall are set up (iron horses used to line up for the spectators), it will be opened to enter the viewing area at about 4:30. What you need to do at this time is to sprint for 100 meters, even if you are not enough , but if you are fast enough, you have a first-line chance of rushing to the first row.

3. If you watch the flag-raising ceremony on the south side, then you will have an inherent advantage. If you are on the north side, then quickly find a place to come to Tiananmen Square.

After the flag-raising ceremony is over, don’t rush to take a photo with the flag like others. What you need to do is to go against the current and go to the approximate position indicated by the red arrow, which is on the side of the National Museum. The Monument to the People’s Heroes is slightly behind. Find the queue entrance of the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, find the entrance quickly and line in (don’t ask the staff, they will ask you to find this entrance from the Great Hall of the People if you find it, it’s extra It takes an extra 15 minutes to go to the black line. Don’t go to the Great Hall of the People, it’s the team entrance). If you wait about half an hour in the queue, then the line you lined up is probably the yellow line. I can tell you clearly that it will take two and a half hours to complete this line.

When entering the memorial hall, please be sure to keep quiet, turn off your mobile phone or mute it, and take off your hat.

4. The Great Hall of the People and the National Museum do not need to line up very much, but after coming out of the memorial hall, it is probably near the front door. There are some restaurants here or on the opposite street. If you don’t have breakfast, it is recommended to eat first After breakfast, if you eat, you can prepare some lunch and water at noon (the food and beverages in the scenic area are not cheap), and then go to the next stop to visit one after another. On the way, you can stop by the Monument to the People’s Heroes and take pictures near the flag raising platform .

5. The visit to the Forbidden City is mainly on the right side. Tickets do not include the Clock Museum and the Treasure Museum. You can also choose a joint ticket when buying tickets online. The closing time of the Forbidden City is 17:00, and the Clock and Treasure Hall is at 15:30. It takes about 4 hours to browse the entire Forbidden City, so please control the time yourself. Generally speaking, it is enough. Sometimes the Clock and Watch Hall needs to line up. The route can be adjusted appropriately, just next to the Treasure Hall. The specific route is: Ticket Office → Meridian Gate → Jinshui Bridge → Calligraphy and Painting Hall → Hall of Supreme Harmony → Hall of Central Harmony → Hall of Preserving Harmony → Treasure Hall → East Sixth Palace → Watch Hall → Qianqing Palace → Kunning Palace → Imperial Garden → Shenwu Door.

If you still have time, you can go to the turret to see the Forbidden City at sunset, which is also very spectacular.

6. Jingshan Park is on the opposite road from Shenwumen. You can enter the park directly with the Beijing One Card. There is no need to buy a ticket. The fare is 2 yuan.

Day 5 Be a good man, read Ming history

The Badaling Great Wall is located at the north entrance of the Guangou Ancient Road in Jundu Mountain, Yanqing County, Beijing. The Badaling Great Wall is divided into north and south sections. There are more people on the North Great Wall. You can choose to take the cable car, slide or hike. The narrowest part is on the fourth floor in the north, and only one person can pass through. The steepest part is close to 90°, and the largest step height difference Close to 60cm.

The famous saying that if you don’t reach the Great Wall, you are not a hero, refers to the North Eighth Floor of the Badaling Great Wall, the highest point of the entire Badaling Great Wall, and the terminal station of the cable car, where the most people are.

It's not very steep here, and there are even steeper places where you dare not take out your camera. Passengers who are not physically strong, please do what you can. The stairs are steep and have a large span. In some places, there are no stairs, but a slope that needs to be pulled on the guardrail to go up, which will consume a lot of physical strength. If it happens to be at noon in summer, a lot of water will be consumed, causing the risk of exhaustion and heatstroke.

If you come to the city in winter, the slippery ground covered by ice and snow, the tense spirit and the dry air will make your journey more difficult.

Before we started, we were full of enthusiasm and said that we would finish the hike on foot. In the end, we just climbed from the north eighth floor to the north eleventh floor, then turned back to the north eighth floor and took the cable car back.

The Ming Tombs are divided into Changling and Dingling. Changling mainly looks at the ground, while Dingling mainly looks at the underground palace. Since the Dingling Mausoleum was excavated during the New China period, the ground was burned in a large area before the excavation, but the underground palace was not stolen, so it is a relatively complete ancient mausoleum.

But it is a pity that the archaeological technology at that time was not high, which caused many ancient artifacts to be oxidized and irreversibly damaged as soon as they were unearthed. Therefore, all emperor tombs were not allowed to be excavated. The Ming Tombs have become the only imperial tombs that can be visited.

As for the specific historical allusions, you can ask the explanations of the scenic spots to understand them in detail, so I won’t introduce them here.

Tips:

1. There are several ways to go to the Great Wall. One is to take bus No. 877 from Deshengmen to Badaling Great Wall. The advantage is that the cost is very low, but the disadvantage is that the time is a little longer; the second is to take the special line, which is also recommended. Tourist bus No. 1 It takes less than an hour and a half. It is a high-speed direct bus line. It does not need to stop and take the national road like ordinary buses. The time on the road will be shortened a lot, and the fare is 20 yuan; the third is to take a tour group As for what kind of Great Wall you went to, how you got back, and how many things you bought when you came back, no one can guarantee that, of course, most of them are fine.

The original intention of the establishment of Tourist Bus Line 1 and Line 2 is also because the Great Wall and the Ming Tombs are far away from the urban area of ​​Beijing. In the past, many tourists were deceived by black tour guides and black tour groups. The deputy mayor of Beijing specially approved the establishment and was subsidized by the state. Special tourist lines established for combat and protection, they all have fixed waiting places for passengers to pick up and drop off at scenic spots, green ticket buying channels (cable ticket for Line 1, joint ticket for Ming Tombs for Line 2) and independent public toilets.

The author reminds that you must buy tickets for the Great Wall scenic spot in advance, usually one to two days in advance, because now the Great Wall is limited to 65,000 people per day for protection and safety considerations, and it must be sold out every day. Especially if you go on Monday, you need to book one day in advance, because all the scenic spots near Tiananmen Square are closed for rest on Monday, and almost all tourists will crowd to the Great Wall. Some people can't buy tickets, thinking that there will always be other ways to get in, and they will also take a bus there. Unfortunately, there is no ticket for this section of Badaling. If you don't book tickets, really don't waste your time.

There are hiking and cable cars on the North Great Wall, and hiking and small trains on the South Great Wall. Here we mainly introduce the North Great Wall.

If you choose to hike, you will arrive at the hiking entrance after ten minutes of walking after getting off the bus. There are the most people here, because many tour groups give very little time and do not include cable car tickets. After all, it is only a few dozen yuan in total. Buy a ticket Neither is enough.

If you choose the cable car to go to the city, it is recommended not to buy a package ticket for the scenic spot plus the cable car, because the cable car and the scenic spot are not operated by the same company, so the ticket is not connected to the Internet. Scenic spots don’t need to redeem the ticket to enter directly by swiping the ID card, but the cable car ticket needs to go to another place to redeem the paper ticket first, and then return to the cable car entrance to wait in line to board the city. It takes a lot of time on the way, and there are too many people, after 8 o’clock It takes about an hour to queue up to get on the cable car, and the tourist bus line here can directly buy the cable car ticket, which is the same as the online price. The fare is about ￥140 round trip. If you only take a section, you can get a refund of ￥40 , The main reason for the recommendation is that it can save a lot of time, just walk for about three minutes after buying and queue up to take the cable car.

Please be sure to bring enough water. There are only dining spots near the north eighth floor, and there are no other places.

2. When the Great Wall comes out, if your time just allows, or as long as you catch up before 13:00, you have an easy way to go to the Ming Tombs. Take the branch line of the tourist bus line 1, and the journey is about It takes less than 50 minutes, and it is also full of high speed, which is very convenient. Get off at Changling Scenic Area. After browsing, you can take a bus for one stop, and you can reach Dingling to continue visiting. If you come by the last bus at 13:00, there is a high probability that you will not be able to catch the last bus at 16:00 on Tourist Bus Line 2 to return to the urban area, but don’t panic, the 872 bus can also take you back , just a little longer, about an hour and a half.

It should be noted that near the No. 872 bus station, there are many fruit sellers and they say that they will take you to the subway station for 30 yuan, and you can go back to downtown Beijing after taking the subway. The price is as fast as taking the bus. I hope readers will not be fooled easily.

Those who sell fruit don't know if there is a problem. Anyway, our peaches are all moldy the next day after we don't eat them. As for taxis, if you have to take the subway back, it doesn’t cost 30 yuan to take Didi, and they will take you around halfway, and they will never start if they are not full. 4.5 for one person, what they said is the same as the bus price, which means that it is better than those who do not have a bus card, and the subway fare is not included.

Gourmet articles

Nanluoguxiang

There are several well-known shops in Nanluoguxiang, namely Wenyu Cheese Shop, Suzuki Canteen, and Beiping Coffee. The taste of the cheese shop is not much different from that of yogurt, that is, put some ingredients on the cheese and let you mix it yourself. It is not amazing, but the taste is acceptable. As for the other two restaurants that have not been there, I will not comment, but the dining environment is quite distinctive.

Awen Crab Roe Buns with Soup, ￥25 a piece. When you walk nearby, you will see many people sucking the soup in the buns with straws.

Bell and Drum Tower

There is a Yaoji Fried Liver restaurant next to the Drum Tower, which is an online celebrity restaurant, and the author also went in to try it. We didn't finish any of the special foods introduced such as fire, fried belly, and fried liver. Maybe a small part is because the taste here is a bit sweet. We are not too used to it, but the taste is still good; another very important reason is that the store is extremely hot and not ventilated. I was already sweating as soon as I went in at night, so I really didn't want to stay longer.

temple of heaven

There is a Hongyuan Nanmen hot-boiled meat restaurant at the South Gate Exit of the Temple of Heaven. Basically, they wait for a table every day. After 17:00, they have to wait for more than 2 hours to eat. The special feature is the sesame sauce, which is very thick and delicious. I can clearly feel the aroma of sesame seeds, and personally feel that the texture and taste are good. Others are clear water soup base and fat beef and sheep, which are not much different from ordinary hot pot meat. The taste is lacking for those of us who came out of the gourmet city. But some people in the group were not used to this sauce, so they changed to soy sauce and chili as seasoning. Unfortunately, even soy sauce is not the kind of taste we are used to. Whether it takes time to wait is a matter of opinion. up.

Wangfujing, Sanlitun

Recently, Wangfujing Snack Street is under renovation, so there is no way to go in, so you can only go to some places outside, but even if you go in, the snacks in Wangfujing Snack Street are the least authentic among all scenic spots, so it is not recommended to go there.

The most famous roast duck here is the most famous in Beijing. Da Dong, Quanjude, and Siji Minfu are all good choices. Just opposite Quanjude is Goubuli, which is famous for making steamed buns.

Most of the roast ducks are made in the same way, with pure meat, pure skin, half meat and half skin. The picture is about half a duck. Put the duck meat and Fujian together with the dough, and dip it in a special sauce (somewhat similar to old Beijing The taste of chicken roll sauce), sandwiched together to eat. As for the skeleton of the duck, it is customary to fry it with salt and pepper or make soup. The per capita consumption is around ￥150, of course it is up to the individual to be frugal.

Goubuli's buns are basically ￥50 a cage, and then unlimited refills of millet porridge, the taste is average.

Gui Street

This is a street where 24-hour restaurants are not closed. There are many famous restaurants in it, so you can try them all. For example, Huajia Yiyuan (Huajia cuisine), Dongxinglou (Shandong cuisine), Yuefu Restaurant (Northeast cuisine), Suzuki Canteen (Japanese cuisine), Huda Restaurant (crayfish) and so on.

Hu Da Restaurant is especially recommended. The main reason for the recommendation is that the crayfish are fresh, the meat is firm, the shell is hard enough and clean, and the shrimp meat is very tasty. Unlike some shops, the prawns have been cooked uniformly long ago. The guests order whatever flavor they want, just drizzle with the sauce and stir-fry before serving. Each method is divided into different grades and different prices. The smallest is ￥5/piece, and the largest is ￥12/piece. They all start at 20 pieces. Of course, different tastes have different prices. Maybe other places are the same as our hometown. Crayfish are sold by the catty. At first glance, they are so scared that they dare not order them. In fact, they are not. If you order 20 crayfish of this size, there are actually It's close to two catties, and it's not much more expensive than the catty, so you can eat it with confidence. Their sheep scorpion is also good, which is the spine meat of sheep, boiled with medicinal materials, and eaten while it is hot, which can eliminate the smell of mutton.

Houhai, Beihai Park, Shichahai

Houhai mainly has some snacks, such as candied haws, yogurt, sour plum soup, and fried noodles.

night play

There are still many places to go in Beijing at night, such as Houhai Pedestrian Street, Sanlitun Bar Street, and near Gongti if you want to go shopping; Wangfujing Street, Sanlitun and Taikoo Li if you want to go shopping; Olympic Park is also a good choice if you want to see the night view.

This photo was taken at the location of the red circle. There is a canteen here. Every evening behind the canteen, there are photographers from all over the place.

Accommodation

Here is a separate section, there is nothing to recommend, mainly to expose a hotel (Weike* Store (Taoranting Store)). Because I stayed in the same hotel for a few days, the lobby of this hotel is decorated very artistically. There is also a public computer on the second floor, which is convenient for passengers to check information. At first glance, it looks good, but after staying here, I found a lot of problems.

1. Every time I come back, I have to search my body and bag, and I have to go through it again. I can only go to the room after the so-called security inspector agrees. This is a serious violation of personal rights.

2. Because we stayed for six days and put everything in the room, we asked the front desk before we opened the room, and the front desk also told us clearly that they would not clean without consent without our consent, and assured us to rest assured. But in fact, when I came back from playing tired the next day, I found that the hotel had been cleaned and my things were turned over. Although I didn’t lose anything, I felt that my privacy was violated, so I went directly to the front desk to argue, and said a lot, The front desk said it's not their problem, since they don't want to clean it, they won't clean it for you later, the attitude is extremely bad. At this point we thought the matter was over, but on the third day, the problem remained the same, and we still repeated our complaints, and we got guarantees from the hotel, until the day we checked out, there was no improvement.

3. We asked for an invoice when we left, but the front desk put us aside and asked us to wait, and then walked around slowly, but they didn't deal with it. I told them many times that we had to drive home, and they arranged for a guy wearing glasses to come over to assist us in issuing the invoice, and deliberately mistyped the information when issuing the invoice. We proposed to cancel the invoice and re-issue it, but the guy said that there was no way to cancel it. Unable to reopen, very bad attitude, repeated communication failed, and finally prepared to call the tax bureau to complain, they saw it, and then arranged for another clerk to help us reopen, waited for a while, and finally only gave us I issued 1000+, an invoice for 4 days, and the daily room rate is 250, which is actually seriously inconsistent with the actual situation. We stayed for 6 days and spent 2800+.

It is recommended that those who want to travel and book a room in Beijing, do not stay in this unscrupulous hotel, forget to know.

Summarize

As a capital city, Beijing gives me a good overall impression. All the scenic spots and transportation benefit from state subsidies and the ticket price is very low. It is really good for tourists. This is also the ticket price I have been to. The city that spends the least on the project.

The local old Beijing is very friendly to the outsiders. On the way, we heard us chatting about what kind of flowers and trees it is. If they are free, they will come to us to introduce and talk about the history here, which makes us feel that as such a big , a large international city with such a large number of migrants and such a fast-paced pace, it is quite humane to be able to do this.
