Explore Beijing’s hutongs with a guide. Visit Prince Gong’s Mansion, stroll around Shichahai, and paint a Peking Opera mask in a local home.
Meet your guide at the entrance of Prince Gong’s Mansion, one of Beijing’s most famous royal residences from the Qing Dynasty. Step inside the grand residence known for its symmetrical layout, exquisite wooden carvings, and ornate halls. Don’t miss the “Three Treasures”: the Western-style Gate, the Grand Theater, and the giant “Fu” (Blessing) stone.

Next, take a leisurely walk around Shichahai, a scenic area comprising Qianhai, Houhai, and Xihai lakes. Admire willow trees, stone bridges, lotus blossoms, and landmarks such as Yinding Bridge. Optional visits include the former residences of Soong Ching-ling and Guo Moruo.

Wander through the maze of traditional alleys and courtyards. These hutongs embody the essence of old Beijing life, where ancient architecture and local lifestyles blend harmoniously.

Step into a Beijing resident’s courtyard home and learn to paint your own Peking Opera mask under the host’s guidance. Enjoy the warm family atmosphere and take your handmade mask home as a unique souvenir.

Finally, savor authentic Beijing delicacies around Shichahai, such as roasted lamb at Kaorou Ji, beef tripe at Baodu Zhang, or stewed intestines at Xiaochang Chen. A true feast for food lovers.
