Daxing Hutong

Visit in the morning to experience the bustling local life and find authentic, non-commercialized food stalls.

In their own words: “I'm going in Daxing Hutong. I think it's a famous one, I don't know. Before it was modernized, made super advanced, super convenient. This is how Beijingers used to live. This is what I mean. Houses over here, shared and shared bathrooms. Many of the hutongs in the tourist area in Beijing have been commercialized. You want to look for signs of life just like that. Clothes hanging, and then you know then you know you're in a real hutong with real people.”
