The hutong (lane) is a unique form of community in Beijing. Along these hutongs are tens of thousands of siheyuans, or traditional quadrangle hpuses with courtyards in the center. If you become tired of the high-rises and wide streets, you can take a break and visit some of Beijing's hutongs. You will discover the unique "hutong culture" and "courtyard culture."
胡同里的四合院是北京特有的民居形式。如果你住惯了高楼大厦,看腻了宽阔街道,那就请到北京的胡同里来看看,来感受一下这儿的“胡同文化”和“四合院文化”吧。
