Gate to the Fangjia Hutong
Hutongs represent an important cultural element of the city of Beijing. In contrast to the court life and elite culture represented by the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, and the Temple of Heaven, the hutongs reflect the culture of grassroots Beijingers. The hutongs are residential neighborhoods which still form the heart of Old Beijing. But Hutongs in Beijing are demolished more and more for constructing new buildings. Once police cordons complete with riot shields and some kind of prodding implements appeared along the length of Fangjia Hutong, which up until last night was known as one of the most popular nightlife enclaves in Beijing.
