Free FreeHuafeng Hutong is located in the north of Xicheng District, Beijing. The 270-meter-long and 5-meter-wide hutong starts from Beiluoguxiang in the east and ends at Baosha Hutong in the west.
As one of the historical and cultural reserves of Beijing, Huafeng Hutong has preserved many traditional Siheyuan with the style of old Beijing. It used to be a place where literati gathered, as well as the former residence of many cultural celebrities.
The most praiseworthy of Shijia Hutong must be the strong cultural and artistic atmosphere here, which owe as much to the primary school and the dormitories of the People’s Art Theater in the hutong as to the excellent old artists here. That is the reason why the hutong is attractive. Unlike the noisy outside streets, the hutong itself is a quiet and simple place of residence for ancient Beijing.
According to Hutong in West District Beijing, “the south-north trending Gongjian Hutong is located in the southeast of Shichahai from Jingshan Backstreet to Di’ anmen West Avenue. The 4 meters wide and 530 meters long alley was the former place of the prison for inner court officials in the Ming Dynasty.
Fangjia Hutong, located in the cultural core area of Beijing, is close to Imperial College (Guozijian) and Confucius Temple in the north, Yonghe Temple Creative Industrial Park, Poly Theatre in the east, the Capital Theatre in the south and Nanluogu Alley cultural block, the Central Academy of Drama, National Theatre Company of China and Bell and Drum Towers in the west, so it is surrounded by traditional culture in the fertile soil.
