Cats & Coffee, Mao'er Hutong, Beijing, China
I stumbled upon this little nook while strolling the Mao'er Hutong. It's very low key and not one of the gorgeous places I've seen on TV. But, it's definitely got cats- lots of them. I had a lavender milk tea and sat for a few minutes before my allergies kicked in.

Beijing Hutongs:
South Gong and Drum Lane (Nanluogu Xiang)
The South Gong and Drum Lane is an old hutong in Beijing, renowned for its long history, Hutong culture, specialty stores, and distinctive foods. It is 768 meters (2,519 feet) long and 8 meters (26 feet) wide. Its north end joins Gulou Dong Dajie, and the south end is connected to Di'anmen Dong Dajie. There are eight parallel hutongs on each side of the old alley. These sixteen and the main lane were put on the first list of 25 historic and culturally protected areas in November 1990, by the local Municipal Government. Situated in the downtown area, it is convenient to reach.
The South Gong and Drum Lane was built in the same period that the capital of the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), Dadu, was built, so it is about 800 years old. The sixteen side hutongs were built in the Yuan Dynasty too. Because of its layout, people also call it the Centipede Lane. It was once named Humpback Lane (Luoguo Xiang) in the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644) and renamed to Gong and Drum Lane (Luogu Xiang) in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). The alley remains more complete than other historical heritage sites in Beijing, witnessing the vicissitudes of many dynasties.
It is like an old man who is telling an ancient legend about his past. Here, you can experience the special Hutong culture of Beijing.
If you want to see an authentic courtyard, you'd better come to the South Gong and Drum Lane because this alley remains the most complete lane of traditional courtyard dwellings in Beijing. When you come here, you can see the red lanterns hanging under the eaves. You may find a trace of ancient prosperous Beijing here. You can see the totally different styles of architecture. Compared with the grand red wall and golden colored roof of the Forbidden City, it has gray walls and roofs that represent the folk culture. As it is close to the Forbidden City, many royal families and officials lived here. For example, the former residence of China's last empress, Wan Rong, is in the Mao'er Hutong. In fact, a number of historical celebrities lived in the alleys before, such as Qi Baishi, a great artist, who is famous for his traditional Chinese painting. He lived in Yu'er Hutong for some time.
Although a historic place, the culture here is full of innovation. The South Gong and Drum Lane welcomes its guests with both an old appearance and a new combined culture of China and the West. Small, specialty boutiques welcome you. Le Tian Tao She at No.23 in it is a pottery store where you can enjoy a coffee while admiring the potters at their craft. You may even have a try and make your own piece of pottery. Many people come here for its creative culture and artistic environment. Several art studios have been established, and many movies and TV drama programs have been filmed here too.Meals and snacks in the South Gong and Drum Lane are something else that will appeal to its visitors. The well–known dining hall at No. 108 in it is famous for its tasty pizza and Nepal-style drinks. Wenyu Nai Lao is a time-honored specialty yoghurt shop located at No.49 in it. The shop makes many different types of the best yoghurts. At No.114, the western restaurant Yu Shi Ju Jin provides delicacies of Russian, Italian and Indian styles. Apart from these restaurants, there are many distinctive bars that are worth a visit, such as Plastered 8 and Guo Ke (meaning Passerby) that are very popular among travelers.Walking on the tree-lined road along, experiencing the diverse culture, you will receive more than you expect. It is a feast for your eyes, stomach, and mind at the same time.

20 ???????? Hiking on the Great Wall of China (Mutianyu) in Beijing (Cinematic China Travel) 北京 Пекин
A perfect day in Beijing! Starting the day with traditional Northern Chinese breakfast in Mao'er Hutong near Houhai area, where it is centrally located in the heart of old city. Embracing the sunrise in all Hutongs (narrow streets) around the area observing people started the day on their bicycles.
There's one direct bus from Dongzhimenwai (east of Dongzhimen subway station) can take you there before 8:30am in the morning direct to Mutianyu Great Wall, a section of the Great Wall is well maintained with great view for hiking.
Hiking on the Great Wall on a beautiful day was absolutely a life-time experience of both history and nature. The Great Wall of China is the collective name of a series of fortification systems generally built across the historical northern borders of China to protect and consolidate territories of Chinese states and empires against various nomadic groups of the steppe and their polities. Several walls were being built from as early as the 7th century BC by ancient Chinese states. Despite its original function, the current usage of the Wall is perfect for hiking across the mountainous region since the wall is built along the ridges of the mountains. Be prepared to have enough water with you since it might be hot / dry on the wall with limited supply! There are watching towers you can use to rest among different sections, they were used to send signals by lighting the fires historically by soldiers.
Returning from Great Wall around 4-5pm in the afternoon, do head to Jingshan Park (located in the northern side of Forbidden City in the center of the town). The hill in the Jingshan Park is the perfect spot to enjoy the sunset as well as overlooking the Forbidden City, the old city and the new skyline outside of the city (East Bound).
