Visit the Beijing like a local | a niche route known only to the natives

There are really many treasure routes hidden in South of Beijing. The route we took today has ancient buildings with centuries of vicissitudes.There are also stylish bookstores and cafes.

What’s more important is that there are no tourists coming shoulder to shoulder.

📍Route: Yasili Church – Ming City Wall Ruins Park – Wenqin Pavilion Bookstore – Lotus Coffee – Southeast Corner Tower of Beijing City

📍Yasili Church

Mentioning churches in Beijing, many people blurt out Xishiku Church or Nantang Church. But few people remember that there is actually a National Security Church hidden near Chongwenmen.It is the first chapel established by the American Methodist Church in North China.

📍Wenqin Pavilion Bookstore

 Enter from the south gate of Ming City Wall Ruins Park, after walking a few steps, you can see the sign of the bookstore.Walk in through the cave-like entrance,there is a special feeling.

📍Lotus Coffee – Southeast Corner Tower of Beijing City

Lotus Coffee is not only open in the Ming City Wall Ruins Park,What’s even more amazing is that it was opened on the city wall in the Ming Dynasty.One side is mottled history,on one side is a bustling modern city.This geographical location feels very good in the whole country. And the coffee tastes good too.

Sitting on the tower in summer and enjoying the breeze, looking at the green city below,another afternoon to kill.
