What are the scenic spots in Houhai?

Houhai

Houhai refers to Shichahai, which has three water surfaces: Qianhai, Houhai and Xihai. In order to distinguish it from the North Sea, the China Sea and the South China Sea, it is called the Last Three Lakes. Haidong starts from Di 'anmenwai Street in the north, Xinjiekou Street in the west, Ping 'an Street in the south and Second Ring Road in the north, with a total area of 146.7 hectares, including 34 hectares of water and 1 1.5 hectares of green land. This is the ancient waters of the Yuan Dynasty in Beijing 700 years ago. Houhai is a part of Shichahai, which has gone through thousands of years. It is a leisure place with water to see the mountains and weeping willows on the shore. Houses and residents on the shore, surrounding palaces and former residences of celebrities all reveal the infinite charm of Beijing flavor and history.

People come here only because they can still hear the chirping of insects in autumn, see the miniature of quadrangle buildings in old Beijing and chew the royal charm that seems to have gone away. It is called the sea, but it is actually a huge artificial lake, a clear pond exclusive to the royal family in the old days. Houhai is located in the center of Beijing, only four or five stops away from Tiananmen Square, connected with the famous Beihai seaside, far away from Jingshan and the Forbidden City. If you walk along the coast, you will accidentally see the red wall of Lake Biwa. Beyond those tall and solemn gates, you can only see the tall trees in the yard. The air is full of mystery. It is said that the water in Houhai is connected with Long Mai and the Forbidden City, and it has been a treasure trove of geomantic omen since ancient times.

Therefore, monks of all ages built temples here, and princes and ministers chose sites on the shore to build houses and gardens. Celebrities also moved to the lake one after another and began their first waterfront life in Houhai. Therefore, as the saying goes, there is Shichahai first, and then Beijing. At the foot of the bell and drum tower, there is a diagonal street, and there is no end in sight for cigarettes. Walking around, my favorite Houhai is in front of me. Countless brilliant afternoons and confused nights, we are here. In Houhai, everything was blurred by time and space. If I have a tolerant heart, I will give you six reasons to go there. It doesn't matter what you drink in Houhai. What you drink is the scenery, but also the mood. There is a big sofa on the left bank. In the afternoon, you can sit under the sunny window and drink a cup of red fruit tea.

You can stretch and relax on the sofa. Sitting in the room of Dingyi Hutong, you can even look out at the street through the heavy wooden window lattice. Looking out of the window, the world of mortals is like smoke, and the bright rose eggplant is just around the corner. Do you have all the happiness? The moonlight is like a hook, and some old friends are sitting by the lake outside Houhaifu, listening to the boat music not far away, and lotus lights are floating on the water. Ding and Xiao Qingdao bumped into each other. Whether it's a blessing or a joke, even if it's just a blow, I'm willing to open the door of lotus with you and hand over a bunch of lychees and two cherries in my hand. Help me clean up and take it upstairs! Just like going home. Order a cup of leisure tea, and the warm sunshine hits you through the window.

Birth and joining the WTO may be separated by this layer, and time passes quietly in the faint fog of soaring. In Baifeng, did you notice that bathroom? Small space smells good, like a greenhouse. Bitter coffee, cold beer, Jack Coke, Malibu. Like the details we like, mixed together is the taste of Houhai. No matter how many civilizations you remember, you will never forget to eat Shichahai. It's on the street near the water, deep in the alley. Yindingguan Mountain, one of the eight scenic spots in Yanjing, is the barbecue season in 2008. In the old season when Daoguang Lotus Market set up stalls to sell roast mutton, people now cherish this refreshing barbecue and delicious food. In front of them, there is clear water and the western hills are dancing. Yangfang Hutong 1 1-Lijiacai, a colorful government restaurant. Without the enthusiasm of old Beijingers, some people have strict rules, and it is forbidden to order and eat casually. No matter how famous you are, Bill Gates, Ali, champion or head of state, you won't buy it. Fish, tea ceremony and boat meals on the west coast make food and pleasure perfect and harmonious. No wonder urbanites flock to the city.

Small bridges and flowing water, Jiangnan people, a bowl of clear soup, a spoonful of elegant taste, many hidden snacks in Y Lane, full of tripe, stewed meat and attractive bean juice. Take a tour of human tricycles, start from Guo Moruo's former residence in Haixi Street, and climb the Drum Tower along Yinding Bridge in Qianhai Haibei. Then take a bus through Yaer Hutong to Yinding Wharf. There is 18 Hutong winding: overlooking Qin Chunfu, passing Gongwangfu Garden, not far from the former residence of Peking Opera master Mei Lanfang, Guo Moruo and other literati once lived by Shichahai.

If you can go through and just visit, maybe you can pass by Ms. Yang Mo on the shower head. Maybe I will have dinner with Cai E and Fengxian Xiao in Huixiantang, and maybe I can catch up with the painter Wei Tianlin's wedding! Interesting century-old streets, streets and lanes still stubbornly release the flavor of old Beijing. The century-old street at the foot of the Drum Tower contains a lot of charm of old Beijing. Go to Yaoxing Fashion Studio to measure a Chinese jacket, buy two gadgets in a small antique shop, rub your back in Xinyuan bathroom and shave in the old barber shop. Sit down in the street at will and listen to two vendors shouting or rhyming with Beijing accent. Or glance at an old woman in a double-breasted coat and a bun; Watching the girls train their babies, the smoke of washing, cooking and burrito cooking rises; Sit in the attic of a bar where fashion and folk customs are integrated, order an ice card, or drill into a nearby jewelry store and choose a hairpin. I appreciate that some people compare the scenery of Shichahai to West Lake Spring, Qinhuai Summer and Dongting Autumn.

It is said that the water in Shichahai is crystal clear, and people who can't paddle are afraid of being entangled in aquatic plants on the seabed. The bridge here is also beautiful. There are many bridges in Shihai, the most famous of which are Yinding Bridge and Wanning Bridge. Silver ingot viewing the mountain, standing on the bridge, looking north, the sea and the sky are the same, overlooking the western hills. Wanning Bridge on the south side of Drum Tower is the oldest bridge in Beijing. It is the gate for Shichahai waters to change from lake to river, and it is the dividing line between imperial city waters and civilian waters. Wanning Bridge echoes the overpass from a distance, forming the central axis of Beijing. Spring has the gentle character of Jiangnan water town, and winter has the magnificent scenery covered with snow and ice in the north. The irresistible momentum of pavilions, doors and tiles, and high officials and dignitaries attracted many literati with China charm. People can't see enough and can't figure it out.

I don't know how many generations have left a wonderful time here: skating on the ice car in childhood, boating on the water in youth, hugging under the weeping willow, and strolling on the boulevard in ordinary days. Hanging bamboo curtains, hollowing out carved flowers, old photos, big teapots, street greetings and selling bits and pieces of memories explain a complete Shichahai plot, which makes people unable to give up or lose. Guanghua Temple, a famous scenic spot in Shihai: Capital Library of Qing Dynasty, where Mr. Lu Xun once worked. Spring Palace: Pearl Garden in the early Qing Dynasty, where Nalan Xingde, the son of the late Pearl, lived. At the end of Qing Dynasty, Cixi presented this garden to Prince Chun, the father of the last emperor Puyi. After liberation, Soong Ching Ling worked and lived in his West Park for 18 years.
