In fact, aside from my work and life, Beijing is arguably one of my favorite cities.
I've been to Beijing N times, and I can even say that I'm more familiar with this than I'm with my hometown (I people who don't go out of the door as soon as I go home~).
But every time I come to Beijing to play, I do what I want, and I go to the Forbidden City and the Summer Palace when the weather is good...... Take a turn, find a coffee shop or bookstore to spend the afternoon when you are tired, or go to Huairou Yanqing to climb the Great Wall and worship the Buddha, and there is hardly a one-day or two-day tour route.
In addition, Beijing is really big as the capital, so I still have a bit of a headache before writing this Beijing raider.
Tiananmen Square will never be able to get out in half a day, and it will be gone for half a day to find a park and go around.
Later, I thought of Zhao Lei's Drum Tower, and thought of the 107 Road that strung together the memories and cultural scenery of old Beijing.
I suddenly thought that I could sit on the 107 road to play in Beijing, and follow it through all kinds of old Beijing styles, and meet an imperial capital that has both a tall royal style and an invincible down-to-earth atmosphere!
It starts from Dongzhimen, and finally ends in the east of Baishiqiao, connecting the east and west cities and Haidian. The well-known Beixinqiao, Beihai, Shichahai, Drum Tower, Beijing Zoo, Zizhu Courtyard, ...... It's all on this line.
Not only that, there are also many delicacies in the memory of Lao Bei along Route 107, such as Yao Ji fried liver, Ju'er family, and Man Heng Ji...... It's a home-cooked taste that I've eaten for years.
Take No. 107 Road, skate, watch pandas, meet the top of the Forbidden City, chase the sunset of the White Tower, beat the red wall of the Drum Tower, and look at the overlooking Beijing city in the rooftop café...... No matter how many times you come to Beijing, you can find new surprises again.
Let's talk about which stops along the line to stop and play:
Dongzhimen Inner Station: Longyan Tea Shop (Food)
Beixinqiao Junction West Station: Beixinqiao, Guijie (food)
Xiaojing Factory: Hutongs around Nanluoguxiang, Ju'er people (food)
Drum Tower Station: Bell and Drum Tower, Shichahai
Beihai North Gate Station: Beihai, Jingshan
Dongguanfang Station: Prince Gong's Mansion
Ping'an Hospital Station: Baita Temple and Hutong
Beijing Exhibition Center Station: Beijing Exhibition Center
Zoo Station: Beijing Zoo
Baishiqiao East Station: Zizhuyuan Park, Xihan Xinjiang Meatball Soup (Food)
Dongzhimen Inner Station
Longyan Tea Shop
Store address: Next door to KFC on the basement floor of Raffles City Beijing
Many friends of Longyan Tea Shop should have heard that it is almost a must-drink milk tea when coming to Beijing, and some people call it "the light of Beijing's local milk tea".
It is more recommended to recommend Songfeng Oolong, which is a pure milk tea taste, very clear and fragrant.
I also drank Longji rice stuffing, this one is sweet, I think I can order sugar-free if I want to try it.
You can order the applet first, and then go over to pick it up. I think his milk tea is a bit sweet, and if you order milk tea, you can have less sugar.
North Xinqiao Road Junction West Station
North New Bridge
The strategy of Beixinqiao was just written not long ago, so I won't tell you, but you can see the link for details:
A city eats all over the world, and it is too aggrieved to say that it is a food desert
There is also a Gui Street nearby, which is also one of the night snack resorts in Beijing, and friends who want to eat crayfish can try Hu Da.
Small warp factory
Nanluoguxiang and its surroundings
Although Nanluoguxiang is very commercial, it is still relatively easy to visit the brick factories and Juer Hutong around Nanluoguxiang.
If you come here, you can walk around the alleys around Nanluoguxiang, which is very interesting. If you come in time for autumn, the scenery is also very good.
In addition, there is a braised pork rice in Ju'er Hutong that has been open for many years-Ju'er family, which is very recommended.
The front of his house is very small and not very eye-catching, and the inside is a very homely device, which feels like going to the locals' houses to eat.
The signature of this house is the braised pork rice, which is covered with a layer of fat and thin braised pork, and the taste is very similar to the braised pork in the north.
And for so many years, his family's braised pork has always been free to renew, which has always been fresh in my memory. No matter how much you eat, you can eat here as much as you want, and it's very warm.
Ju'er address: No. 63, Xiaoju'er Hutong
Gulou Station
What is very ceremonial is that when No. 107 passes by the Drum Tower, the BGM of "Drum Tower" will sound on the car, and there will always be infinite emotion when listening to the familiar "I am a silent passenger who misses you by the window / When No. 107 passes by again / Time is the tram ...... that takes away youth".
I don't know when the red wall of the Drum Tower has become a "check-in attraction."
Walking in front of the red wall, almost all of them are people from all over the world who come to check in. But it's really a good place here, whether you want to take wedding photos, Hanfu, Qing and Han women...... This section of the red wall is a perfect fit.
Bell and Drum Tower:
The bell tower and the drum tower of the drum tower can go up, they are built in the Yuan, facing each other, there is a dusk drum and morning bell.
They are on the central axis, and when you look down from above, you can also see the scenery of Beijing City, and you have a good view.
On the second floor of the drum tower, there is a drumming performance at 10:00~16:00 on the hour, and the performance time is not long, but it is very ceremonial, and you can go up in time.
Draw an important point: The stairs of these two buildings are long, steep, and steep. It's okay to go up, but when you look at the long stairs when you come down, you can't help but shake your legs, and friends who are afraid of heights will pass it directly.
The original picture is like this, but it is actually more shaky than in the photo
Shichahai
Although there are many tourists in Shichahai, it is indeed worth visiting.
Ice skating in the winter and lotus viewing in the summer. Come here in the evening to find a small bar to drink, very pleasant.
I would like to recommend a café bar in Shichahai, which is also a terrace café with a good view. It is the sugar house coffee on the cigarette pouch diagonal street, and you can see the lively scene of everyone skating when you sit on it.
Beihai North Gate Station
Beihai Park
Beihai Park is not very conspicuous among the royal gardens in Beijing, but it is one of the oldest surviving royal gardens in China, and its origin is not small~
Beihai Park was built in Liaojin, and "one pond and three mountains" existed at that time. The biggest feature of Beihai Park is that there are many gardens in the park, such as Picture Boat Zhai, Jingxin Zhai, etc., which are all worth visiting.
It is also the place where the song "Let's Swing the Sculls" is sung. I haven't been to Beihai Park for a long time, and the cold wind of Beihai in winter brings a unique sense of gloom in northern winter.
But it is this sense of gloom that makes its sunset more lonely and romantic.
White towers, dead trees, wild ducks, sunsets, semi-frozen water...... Especially when the sunset shines on the water and wild ducks, it looks like a scene in a painting.
Jingshan
It takes about one stop to walk from Beihai to Jingshan, which is not very far.
In the off-season, you only need 2 yuan to meet the treasure park at the top of the Forbidden City, and if you miss this cost-effective price, you will really cry to death.
Ascending Jingshan, you can not only see the panoramic view of the Forbidden City, but also the central axis and new skyline of Beijing.
Jingshan is also a very suitable place to go before sunset, the Forbidden City at sunset has a little soft romance, and it will be very good to take pictures.
But what is not so good is that Jingshan is a little biased in the direction of watching the sunset, and you need to find the right angle to take good photos.
In addition, a little down from the top of the mountain, you can enjoy Beihai Park, and the view is also good.
I came to Jingshan this time, and found that there are a lot of tourists on it, if you want to see the sunset, come early to occupy a place, otherwise you will definitely not be able to squeeze into the front row.
Jingshan is still the place where Emperor Chongzhen was martyred, and there is a monument under the mountain, but the crooked neck tree is no longer the one it was back then.
By the way, Jingshan is very suitable for spring, and the peony of Jingshan in spring is a scene in Beijing, which is very beautiful.
Higashikanbo Station
Prince Gong's Mansion
Prince Gong's Mansion was originally the residence of Heshen, and later became the residence of Prince Yongxuan of Qing and Prince Gong Yixun, which was the largest palace in the Qing Dynasty.
It is dependent on the Qianhai and Houhai, and it is said that it is built on the dragon vein, and the location is absolutely extinct.
Its ticket price is the same as that of the Forbidden City, but it is worth it in absolute terms. With a total area of more than 60,000 square meters and a neat and symmetrical layout, I think the garden is better than the Imperial Garden of the Forbidden City.
When you come to Prince Gong's Mansion, a few places you should not miss are:
✅ Western Gate: This is the main gate of the garden, the shape of the copy of the Old Summer Palace's Dafa Haimen, Dafa Hai has long been destroyed, standing in front of this gate infinitely sighing.
✅ Grand Theatre: The only existing fully enclosed theatre in China, without a single iron nail, it is said that the sound here has a similar sound effect when watching the play, and the wisdom of the ancients is admirable.
✅ Fu word tablet: In the secret cloud cave, it is Kangxi's imperial pen, and it is known as the first blessing in the world.
✅ Rear cover building: The rear cover building of Prince Gong's Mansion is nearly 200 meters long, which is the longest building in the palace in China, separating the mansion from the garden.
It's a pity that the appearance of Prince Gong's Mansion in winter is not very high, and it will definitely be more charming if it comes in spring.
Ping An Hospital Station
Baita Temple and the surrounding alleys
When you come to Beijing, how can you not string the hutongs?
Compared with the fire of Luoguxiang and Dongsi, Baitasi and Xisi Hutong have more fireworks. There is no commercialization here, and many hutongs are residential areas, so you can really feel the Beijing locl model when you walk here.
However, because it is a residential area, everyone should also be careful not to enter the courtyard of the local people when they come, and respect the lives of local residents.
After getting off the bus from Ping'an Hospital, you can walk along Zhao Dengyu Road to Su Radish Hutong and Qianchaoshou Hutong, both of which are very easy to visit.
Then you can go to the east sandwich road on the edge of the White Pagoda Temple, I heard that Yi Yang Qianxi once came here to take a photo, the red wall and white tower are very beautiful.
In the past two years, Baitasi has also added a lot of coffee shops, you can choose a rooftop coffee to check in, and when the sky is blue in the afternoon, you can sit there and see the panoramic view of Baitasi, which is refreshing.
The hottest Yao Coffee rooftop in Baita Temple is under repair, and I went to Baita Light Coffee, which is not inferior to its location.
The light of the white tower is a hostel, the decoration looks very warm, the terrace on the first and third floors can drink coffee while watching the panoramic view of the white tower and the temple, the location is great.
There is also a mirror on the terrace near the White Tower, where you can take pictures of the reflection of the White Tower, which is very outstanding.
The coffee of this house is relatively inexpensive, and it is recommended to have a slightly sour specialty, and the sweet snow top on it neutralizes the sourness in the coffee, the taste is very good, and the appearance is also high.
In addition to coffee, it is also recommended to have the same style as the White Tower Temple "White Tower Light Mousse", the sour mousse cake is not greasy to eat, and it is unexpectedly delicious.
This time I went to Beijing and found that the Baita Temple, which had been repaired for a long time, had finally removed the covering, and I could also see the whole body of the Baita Temple.
If you are interested in the temple after drinking coffee, you can also go to the temple to visit, this is a Tibetan Buddhist Gelugpa monastery, the white pagoda was built in the Yuan Dynasty, which was the highest skyline of the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, and has a long history.
If you want to get married, come out of the White Pagoda Temple and walk along Fuchengmen Street to the west four directions, there is a Guangji Temple that is very spiritual. Guangji Temple is also the only free temple among the four famous temples in Beijing, and the Buddhist Association of China is here, which is well worth visiting.
Beijing Exhibition Center Station
Beijing Exhibition Center
Big data pushed me a lot of posts about the Beijing Exhibition Center, what Soviet aesthetics, what Russian-style palaces, and I rushed over to find that it was not open.
Yes, a lot of posts don't mention it, it only opens when there are exhibitions.
However, it is really easy to photograph, and there are also Moscow restaurants, Russian-style cafes, Russian souvenir shops, etc., I think friends who like quiet can also come here to walk and drink coffee, which is quite comfortable.
Beijing Zoo Station
Beijing Zoological Museum
What is the one thing you must do when you come to Beijing now, of course, is to see Menglan! We are not ordinary fire, and it is not easy to see it.
Let's talk about how to meet Menglan first:
Meng Lan (nicknamed Mi Er) lives in the Olympic Pavilion, and after entering the Panda Pavilion (friends who want to go to the Panda Pavilion remember to buy a joint ticket), they directly swipe their ID cards to enter the park.
There are several giant pandas living in the panda pavilion, only the most popular Menglan needs to queue up, and the viewing is also limited, I didn't count the specific time, it is estimated that it should be 5 minutes.
After entering the park, it is recommended that you see Menglan first and then see other pandas. Menglan is also easy to find, and there is always a queue at the door of that venue.
If you want to see Menglan a few more times, you need to queue up again after coming out.
If you don't have too much obsession, you can also go to the Internet to search for live broadcast to watch Menglan, I see many people holding a long mobile phone holder in a corner to broadcast Menglan, really hard work.
You can also go to see other pandas, they are all cute.
I see that the strategy on the Internet is that there will be additional meals at 9 o'clock, 10:30 o'clock and 13 o'clock every day, but according to the staff, its additional meal time is not fixed, and it does not have to be stuck in time.
But it is necessary to come in advance, there will be relatively few people in line in the morning, and the probability of seeing Menglan should also be high.
Also,Whether Meng Lan goes out of the outfield depends on its own mind.,If it's not in the outfield.,The staff won't let people go.,You have to wait for it to come out before you can enter.,Let's wear more when you go to the zoo.。
The animal species of Beidong are still very complete, monkeys, elephants, tigers, lions, penguins, amphibians, etc. are very interesting, and the biggest gain of this visit to Beidong is to see black bears fighting, which is very fun.
The parent-child attribute of the zoo is really strong, and there is a cute pet paradise inside, with many cute dogs, which are very suitable for children to play.
There is also an aquarium in the zoo, but it is not recommended to have many types of marine animals.
The zoo also has a lot of century-old buildings to see, such as its old main gate (that is, the south gate) is a Qing Dynasty building, Western-style three-arch, classical style is amazing.
The Songfeng Luoyue Xuan, which is across the lake from Shihu Mountain, used to be a cruise ship dock in the park, and Cixi also came here to take a boat.
By the way, the zoo has a river and a boat ride, so you can take a boat to Zizhuyuan and the Summer Palace, so you can try it if you come in summer.
If you are bringing children, you can also stop by the planetarium opposite the zoo, which has a lot of interesting astronomical science.
Baishiqiao East Station
Zizhuyuan Park
Zizhuyuan is a free park where you can meet all kinds of old Beijing, and my deepest memory of it is the scene of many people dancing here in the early morning, which is very lively.
In terms of scenery, Zizhuyuan is the most beautiful in summer, full of lotus flowers and willows, which look like the south of the Yangtze River.
The scenery in winter is naturally bleak in the same vein as in the north, but it is better to be able to skate.
In winter, it has two ice rinks and a snow rink, ice slides, ice bikes, snow trains, snowmobiles, snow seesaws...... There are all of them, which is very suitable for bringing children to play.
⚠️ Now the rink is closed!
Xihan Xinjiang meatball soup
Store address: Next door to KFC on the basement floor of Raffles City Beijing
This is a store of Xinjiang in Beijing, as soon as I entered the store, I was amazed by the decoration full of Xinjiang style, and I dreamed of returning to the Western Regions.
Its signature is Xinjiang meatball soup and naan, and every time I go to Xinjiang, meatball soup is a must-order dish for me, and I haven't seen it outside Xinjiang for so many years.
When I saw such a store this time, I was almost moved to tears.
His meatball soup is a little worse than what I eat in Xinjiang, but the taste is authentic and the soup is fresh. The main thing is that the beef balls are a little bit less tasty, but I am very satisfied to be able to eat them like this in Beijing.
Another big sign is naan, it is said that the flour was flown in from Xinjiang, and I sat in the position where I could see the Uyghur-speaking uncle kneading the dough and baking the naan...... I ordered a milk rose naan and it was delicious.
There are quite a lot of people in this family, and they also need to wait for a table on the night of the week, and according to the people in the store, there will be fewer people at noon.
This route is also very suitable for taking children to study, it will pass through the central axis of Beijing, there are ancient gardens and temples in Beijing, and will also arrive at the zoo, there are tigers and pandas that children love, bringing children to Beijing to play, you can leave a super good holiday memory!
