Jinrikisha Tour of the Hutongs in Old Beijing |
|
|
Go back to the era of Ming and Yuan dynasties as you travel through narrow hutongs in a jinrikisha
| Overview | |
|
There is no better way to get a feel of ‘Old’ Beijing than to travel in a ‘jinrikisha’ through the narrow charismatic alleys called hutongs, some dating as far back as the 13th century. A hutong is an ancient city alley or lane typical in Beijing, where hutongs run into the several thousand. Surrounding the Forbidden City, many were built during the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. This 700-year old neighborhood of Old Beijing with labyrinth-like narrow streets seems to be caught in a time warp. See it via your own personal rickshaw driver and make several stops along the river, at the vegetable market, and even visit somebody’s house. This tour also includes a visit to the magnificent gardens at Prince Gong´s Mansion, Beijing´s largest and the best preserved royal mansion of Qing Dynasty. This tour is being operated by our key partner, Gray Line Beijing,which is one of the world's leaders in sightseeing tours and ground transportation.
