 A real "chinese pub"




 spying inside a Hutong




 Everything is always open-air, the locals don't see anything bad
in sleeping in public, eating , drinking and talking loud in the street.




 A shop repairing shoes and clothes




 Locals playing chinese chess in the street




 Unfortunately lots of the hutongs are being demolished to make space
for modern ugly buildings.




 Pretty normal scenario in this neighborhood




 But nothing is wasted, there are many people recycling or selling the dumps.

 






 An attractive girl working for a local TV




 Streets of the Hutongs, life is slow and relaxing




 In many houses it's normal to have chickens and other animals




 Lots of kids playing in the street




 a genuine street-restaurant !




 Laowai are always watched with a curious eye by the locals




 Another inside of a hutong in demolition
