DESCRIPTION:

The alleys and lanes took their initial shape in the early 13th century. From then on to early 20th century, they were home to just about every resident in the capital city except the royal families. Even today, a great percentage of Beijing residents still has their houses locted in these lanes. As times goes by, expecially with the progress of urban construction, lanes in Beijing are decreasing in number. On their ground, tall buildings are springing up. A look at the alleys and lanes not only will help one trace the path of the history and culture and gain an understanding of the unique way of life in Beijing, but will also allow one to feel the pulse of the people in this town.
