A trip that broke all original plans

The high-speed train from Tianjin to Beijing only takes half an hour, which is so fast!

As soon as I arrived in Beijing, I felt that there were so many people...

Speaking of coming to Beijing this time, I wanted to spend the New Year in the Forbidden City of the Forbidden City, but I couldn't get any tickets and cried...

Because it felt too cold, I gave up climbing the Great Wall...

The ice skating rink in Shichahai was also closed in advance...

I went to Tiananmen Square, which I didn't want to go, but the strong wind blew into a plum breeze...

I didn't want to go to Ditan Park, but I went there because there was a Spring Festival temple fair, and then I lost one of my gloves...

This is really a willful trip hhh

Yonghe Palace, Confucian Temple Imperial College, Ditan, Wudaoying Hutong

These four attractions are very close to each other, so don't waste time visiting them together. Although I was foolish enough to come again the next day for the Ditan Temple Fair, I felt a little silly...

In fact, I am not interested in burning incense, exams, or Shi Tiesheng... I just went to take photos of the buildings to make up for my regret that I didn't go to the Forbidden City.

Lama Temple, not long ago, there was a news report saying that a man went to line up overnight in order to burn the first incense of the Lama Temple in the New Year.

As Yongzheng's residence, Qianlong's birthplace, and eventually turned into a Lama Temple, I think even if I don't believe in these, I still need to visit such a legendary attraction.

You can take a handful of incense for free from the entrance to the Lama Temple.

The sky in Beijing is very blue! I always thought I would be an air purifier in Beijing, but I didn't expect the ecstasy of blue sky ~

Confucius Temple and Imperial College

The tickets are one, so you can enter if you buy both.

Many adults bring their children to experience the atmosphere of learning.

It's all frozen.

Wudaoying Hutong is actually a commercial street. Nothing particularly worth visiting.

But as I walked and lost myself in these small alleys, I felt that it was a special New Year flavor ~

The exterior decoration is very Beijing-style costa~

This is the street garden I met on the way to Nanmen Shabu. It all has such a Beijing flavor ~

Usually, tickets for Ditan Park only cost 2 yuan, but this time we met the Spring Festival Temple Fair, and the tickets were ten yuan.

We went late on the first day and were closed, so we went there specifically the next day.

In fact, it just has more Spring Festival decorations, red lanterns hanging, and more fake flowering trees, making some comparison charts of the changes in Beijing over the years. Ditan Park is quite big. If you come in autumn when the ginkgo trees are in full bloom, it will be very beautiful ~

The flowers are fake, fake, fake.

{data:{has_more:true,html:

I really like this red wall ~

bird's nest and the water Cube

These two scenic spots are purely check-in spots. They won't even go in, and just take photos outside and leave.

But it's a pity not to come, don't you think?

Water Cube that changes color

This is really dreamy

The IBM Building I saw when I came out of the subway station. The curve of this building is full of characteristics...

Even the Temple of Heaven has gone, can we not go to the Temple of Heaven?!

The Temple of Heaven is very big.

Okay, which attraction in Beijing is not big?

Even the Bird's Nest Water Cube has a large check-in attraction...

I am very tired walking in the Temple of Heaven because there are so many people.

The Temple of Heaven is a place where royal sacrifices are made, so there are still some divine chefs and places where animals are killed. If you don't believe me, look...

I have forgotten exactly what it is for. It is either hair removal or scalding to death, or it is cooked.

You must buy a joint ticket for the Temple of Heaven, because the main attractions such as the Hall of Prayer for New Year and the Huiyin Pavilion charge an additional fee. The joint ticket seems to be only 28.

The weather is bad, the sky is not blue today, and there are many people who can't find a suitable angle, so the photos are ugly.

It is said that this kind of dragon claw tree was only grown by wealthy families before?

I heard it when I was passing by. I don't know if it was true or not, but it was indeed as long as a dragon's claw.

The patterns are all very exquisite

Tiananmen Square with actual 0° and body feeling-50°

Tiananmen Square really scares me...

The first thing is to queue up to swipe your ID card to enter the city. Start flowing backwards from the subway station and go in circles. That person is called Duo. I regretted it when I left the subway station, but if I can't go back, there are people behind you...

I braced myself and passed through checkpoints one after another and entered the square. Holy shit, the empty square was still cold no matter how many people were.

I laughed at this wind, the static wind

I originally wanted to come here to pay my respects to Chairman Mao!! Also visit the National Museum!!

Then there will be no more then. If I don't leave now, I may freeze here...

Fated to see you in spring

Oh, by the way, I really admire those little PLA brothers who are standing guard. They can still stick to their posts on such a cold day. Salute!

Favorite of this trip-Qianhai and Houhai

We walked all the way from Nanluogu Lane to Gulou Street, and then from Yandaixie Street into the Qianhou Houhai area.

The original intention was to go to the ice skating rink in Shichahai, but it seems that it has been closed because the ice surface is not strong and someone falls into the water.

So we started from Houhai Bar Street, passed the Lotus Market, circled Qianhai, and also watched a sunset on ice...

The lotus market is covered with lotus flowers in summer, and I really want to come and see it in summer ~

This kite is very unique. It is not the common string pulling a kite, but there are many, many small kites on a string. I don't know how to put it on.

Next time, come and visit Shichahai Park and Beihai Park in another season ~

Those streets/alleys where you go shopping and eating

We went to these places:

Wangfujing

yandai xiejie

nanluoguxiang neighborhood Tuesday, breathing

dashilan

Xidan emm Okay, this is not a street or an alley, it is a commercial district.

Wangfujing is very similar to Nanjing Road in Shanghai, with the same layout style and the same degree of rubbing shoulders.

There are shopping malls on both sides and a snack street.

This glass is pretty

yandai xiejie

nanluoguxiang neighborhood Tuesday, breathing

These two places are very similar in style. Both have ancient architectural appearances, but in fact they are both similar snack bars, milk tea shops, and souvenir shops.

You can take the subway to Nanluogu Lane, and stroll to Gulou Street on the main road. Not long after walking in the direction of Gulou, you will find Yandaixie Street, and inside Yandaixie Street is Houhai. Perfect.

Although it is a modern shop dressed in an ancient style, selling unauthentic specialties and ordinary snacks, it is quite interesting to take a stroll around.

dashilan

Before I went to this place, my uncle told me that I had to go. Not going to Dazhalan would mean going to Beijing in vain.

I think... emmm... It's okay..

It is also a very popular old store ~

Sugar blowing people are quite interesting.

The master can make many lifelike patterns by blowing and pinching the small piece of sugar.

You can specify the shape you want. Many parents buy it for their children, and the master will let the children blow it and squeeze it himself. It's super fun.

How can I go to Beijing without eating candied haws?

The famous Quanjude.

Zhengyang Gate is the gate of Dazhalan

Xidan

Xidan is an ordinary modern commercial street. It does not have as many people as Wangfujing, but it has everything. I should live in Xidan next time. It is convenient to travel on the subway and I will have to go shopping when I come back at night.

Therefore, the overall ranking of liking these places for shopping and eating is as follows:

Xidan> Yandai Xie Street = Nanluogu Lane> Dazhalan> Wudaoying Hutong> Wangfujing

Those Beijing delicacies

Haiwanju

I ate it at the branch upstairs in Wangfujing. I queued for a long time. Okay, actually, I started to go to Wangfujing's Four Seasons Minfu, but I found that I had run out of today's numbers. So if you can eat good steaks, just laugh...

The specialty of northern cuisine may be the large quantity. I couldn't finish it at all. The two girls were greedy enough to eat this and that, but they couldn't finish it. It was a waste.

Haiwanju's Zhajiang noodles are very good. After mixing, the color is attractive, and the flour is thick but strong. The fried sauce was added at every point, but it became a little salty when it was added all in.

There are two ways to roll around here. Sweet bean paste, but not greasy. I like pastries and foods ~

I forget what this is called. I don't like the fried dough sheet.

Qianlong cabbage. This cabbage is so delicious!!! amazing!!

It belongs to salad, and the sauce should be peanut butter mixed with soy sauce. The taste is very special. I have never tried this before ~

Shredded pork in Beijing sauce. I think the dishes with thick oil and red sauce will taste better if they are mixed with white rice.

Fried meatballs. I don't even like fried things.

In my opinion, Haiwanju is still a restaurant with Beijing characteristics. The tables and chairs were also made of wood, and they did eat some dishes that were not available in the south. Next time I go to a restaurant in Beijing ~

Four Seasons Minfu

Recommended for cracked walls.

What we went to was, like, the front store? It was on the Dazhalan Branch Road. I went there after watching Tiananmen Square freeze into dogs.

It's here at 10:30, and we have gained the blessing of the four seasons without having to queue up.

When we came out after eating and saw the long queue, we were so happy ~

Although it's a bit exaggerated to carry such a grand vessel and put ice cubes in just a few oranges, this is a gift anyway...

The lighting of Four Seasons Mingfu is very good, and it is taken like a photo oil painting.

This is also a gift but very dry bread?

This fried chicken with almond tofu is delicious! Soft and super delicate!

Steamed tripe is also a Beijing specialty. Be sure to eat it while it is hot, because it will get old when it is cold. Crispy taste, add sauce, and have another plate!

South Gate Shabu

I went to the store in Ditan Park.

In fact, it is a clear soup hot pot.

Guozi is a relatively rare copper pot in Beijing nowadays.

Sauce is also a very cute secret sauce.

There are quite a lot of vegetarian dishes and small dishes. Just light up the meat. The price of the meat is very affordable and the quality is good. A very good value restaurant.

It's just that waiting for tables is a little too much. The door opened at five o'clock. I arrived at five o'clock and said I would have to queue for an hour. Later, I went earlier when I went to Ditan the next day, so I didn't wait long.

Eel Love

Food in Xidan Joy City. It seems to be a store that is quite an Internet celebrity. Eel, my love, good time ~

Wenyu Cheese

It is also a very popular store. I think it may be because there are not many desserts in the north, so they will push them.

This is just a very ordinary double skin milk... It is tasteless and expensive...

A not-so-good milk tea...

The dessert trip in Beijing is unsatisfactory...

Miss Hai's rose cake

A small shop in Nanluogu Lane sells rose cakes of various flavors.

It's very delicious. I think the original flavor will be fine, because other egg yolks actually only taste like roses.

Later I saw that they were all semi-finished products one by one and then freshly baked. I don't know if it's fresh roses or made of rose paste, but it's just delicious ~ After eating it, leave the fragrance of roses ~

cheese Wei

This cheese is better than Wenyu cheese, but promise me you will order the original flavor.

The other flavor does not mean adding something on top of the original flavor, but made inside the cheese.

The original flavor is super delicious, and the thick and strong milk flavor is strong.

Always go somewhere that tourists don't go

Ox Street, a Muslim street. They are all halal shops. Cheese Wei is also eaten here.

This is Xizhuan Hutong, a very local hutong. It is gray bricks and tiles but full of life.

In the street garden at the intersection, no one is very quiet. With the blue sky, it feels very comfortable.

last

Still the same sentence.

Don't come in winter.

Static electricity is scary. It will be static when you touch your friends, it will be static when you rub your clothes against your hair, and it will be static when you push the pole when you exit the subway station. It will be static a hundred times a day!!!

Beijing is very productive, even more productive than Tianjin. Probably Tianjin has a Haihe River?

After I came back, my legs peeled off...

So when going to the north, one is to wear more clothes to keep warm, and the other is to moisturize well, and the mask and body lotion are enough.

But I like the winter sky in Beijing very much. It is very blue. Coupled with the lonely trees and branches in winter, I feel it is very beautiful for some reason.

This time, I regret that I didn't get a ticket to the Forbidden City and missed the New Year's Eve activities in the Forbidden City.

The next time you want to go maple leaves and ginkgo leaves in autumn, go to the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, Tsinghua University, the Summer Palace, Yuanmingyuan, Beihai Park, Xiangshan Mountain to admire the maple leaves, Yongwang Mansion, Gubei Water Town...

Holy shit! So many people want to go, what am I doing this time??
