So what's interesting about Beijing Houhai?

1. Shichahai: Located in Xicheng District, Beijing, Shichahai is composed of three connected lakes, namely, Qianhai, Houhai and Xihai. It was called "The Three Rear Lakes" in history. Together with "the first three seas (South China Sea, China Sea and North Sea)", it forms the six seawater systems in the inner city of Beijing. Shichahai is an open national 4A-level tourist scenic spot, the largest of 25 traditional scenic spots in Beijing, and the most representative area of Beijing's history and culture. The most expensive place in Beijing lies not in the grand scale and luxurious decoration, but in the history under the imperial city. The accumulation of 8 years, the management of three dynasties, and the prominence of dozens of generations of dignitaries are all concentrated in Shichahai. As the only open water area in Beijing, Shichahai area has many historical heritages such as Gongwangfu and Taobeile, as well as the former residences of celebrities such as Soong Ching Ling and Guo Moruo. There are not only the most regular old Beijing quadrangles and quiet hutongs, but also the fashionable Ming and Qing commercial streets-Yandai Xiejie; There are not only time-honored brands that have been inherited for a hundred years, but also vibrant bars and streets.

2. Take a paddle boat: The paddle boat in Shichahai is modeled after the boat shape in the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival, which is antique. Especially on summer nights, under the reflection of neon lights on both sides of the strait, tourists board the boat from the pier, and the ancient lanterns are lit at the bow. The beautiful pianist sits at the bow, and the soft and beautiful music of silk and bamboo flows through his fingers. The simple and melodious sound of the boatman's horn echoes the folk music performance from a distance. The ship's shadow, figure, lamp shadow, piano sound, laughter, singing, although in Shichahai, seem to be in "Qinhuai River in the shadow of oars and lamps". Boating across the famous ancient landscape of Beijing "Yinding Bridge", tourists sip tea and have a panoramic view of the rich cultural landscape and folk life on both sides of the strait.

In your leisure time, you might as well take a travel guide to Beijing Houhai, and come here with your family to experience different cultures such as visiting Wangfu, visiting old streets, visiting ancient temples and visiting the former residence.
