I prefer the authentic vibe of North Luogu Alley over the commercialized South Luogu Alley.

Transportation Guide: 🚇 Take Metro Line 8 to Shichahai Station, exit A2, then a 10-minute walk to get there. 🚶‍♂️ You can also walk from Andingmen Station on Line 2 or Nanluoguxiang Station on Lines 6 and 8. (Tip: Compared to South Luogu Alley, this area is much less crowded~) 🌸 Best time to visit: Spring and autumn are the most comfortable seasons! 🌿 Weekdays before 9 AM or after 5 PM have the fewest people. (Avoid weekend crowds to fully enjoy taking photos and posing📸) 📸 Must-visit spots: 🌟 "Xiaoshiguang Coffee" - A trendy coffee shop, perfect for photos! (Address: No. 19 North Luogu Alley, open 10:00-20:00) 🎵 "JM Cafe" - Jay Chou-themed café with an amazing flower wall! (Address: No. 15 North Luogu Alley, open 8:00-20:00) 🏮 "Ming and Qing Courtyard" - Blue bricks and gray tiles with great atmosphere. (Any corner here can capture the old Beijing hutong vibe~) 🍜 Foodie must-tries: 🔥 "Anshe Luobei Food Shop" - Dalian Huoshao is legendary! (Address: No. 22 North Luogu Alley, open 7:00-19:00) 🍚 "Juer Renjia" - Braised pork rice so fragrant you'll want to stomp your feet! (Address: No. 36 North Luogu Alley, open 11:00-20:00) ☕ "JM Cafe" - The pistachio Basque cheesecake is incredible! (Dessert lovers will cry if they miss this😭) 🏨 Accommodation recommendations: 🏢 "Orange Crystal Hotel" - Houhai is right next door! (Address: No. 91 Di'anmen Outer Street) 🏮 "Yunju Hotel" - Courtyard style (They also offer Hanfu experiences, perfect for beautiful photos~) This old Beijing hutong hidden in the bustling city really has more flavor than the heavily commercialized South Luogu Alley. Before it becomes completely popular, hurry and check it out! 🥰
