"The spirits leaping on the rooftop are messengers sent from the hutongs." Under the faint moonlight, a plump tabby cat steps on the bluish-gray tiles and leaps into the courtyard. It nimbly jumps over the carved roof ridge, its tail drawing a lazy arc in the evening breeze, finally stopping by the pond in the center of the courtyard—when it lowers its head to drink, the water reflects the upturned eaves and the cat's twitching whiskers, capturing the poetic charm and agility of old Beijing. "A Cat-like Slow Life in a Courtyard House" Pushing open the vermilion courtyard gate is like stepping into a time warp. Every brick and tile here is steeped in centuries of stories, and the cats are the "wild owners" of the courtyard. ✨ **Encounter the Cat Manager**: It often curls up on the wicker chair in the corridor to bask in the sun, or squats by the Taihu stone, gazing at the koi, and occasionally jumps onto the roof to look at you～ ✨ **Hidden Hutong Secret**: Opening the wooden lattice windows of the guest rooms reveals the courtyard. Wake up to watch cats walking on the tiles and enjoy the moon reflecting in the pond in the evening. **Sky Tea Garden × Starlight Banquet**: Ascend to the terrace and overlook the rows of hutong rooftops, with cats weaving around your feet, while holding a cup of spring tea and waiting for a sunset in the colors of the Forbidden City. 📍Address: No. 5 Dengcao Hutong (Cat Spotting Tip: Please close the courtyard gate gently and do not disturb the dancers on the tiles) > "We are not passing guests of the hotel, but continuers of the hutong stories." —A guest who filled their phone's memory with cat photos 🌟 👉Message me for one-click navigation and enjoy the spring water with the tabby cat manager～

You have to stay in a siheyuan at least once in your life, right? Walk through the corridor and past the Chuihua Gate to reach the courtyard, where pomegranate branches are hung with festive lanterns. The white walls and green bricks complement the red and green colors. Enter the side courtyard to see the spiral staircase leading to the second-floor terrace, a 360-degree view terrace surrounded by ancient trees. There are 11 guest rooms, each with a unique name and poem. The high-quality room facilities are comparable to those of a high-end hotel. It is close to the Temple of Heaven, truly at the foot of the Imperial City. It is said to be the only three-entry siheyuan in Beijing that has been preserved since the Ming Dynasty. It is natural and simple. Many celebrities, such as Mei Lanfang and Kuomintang generals, have lived here. 📍Detailed address No. 5, Dencao Hutong, Dongcheng District. Beijing Heyuan Zhixin Siheyuan (Wangfujing Tiananmen Store) 🚉Transportation guide Dongsi or Dengshikou subway station, 700 meters on foot 👍Recommended check-in points Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, Jingshan Park, Beihai Park, Nanluoguxiang, Yonghe Temple 📝Note tips The tea room afternoon tea can be experienced separately. Although there is floor heating and a small sun in winter, you still need to wear a coat; the tea room is suitable for small meetings or gatherings; it is difficult to park in the hutong, so it is recommended to ride a bike to experience the beauty of Beijing hutongs. If you are driving, you can park at the nearby "Hui Shang Gu Li", which is about 500 meters away, 8 yuan/hour.

Hehehe 😁, the only thing is that I didn't know about it earlier, I didn't find this treasure place.

In the bustling city, I found a quiet courtyard, as if I had traveled through the long river of history and came to the ancient Siheyuan. Here, every brick and tile tells a story of the past; every corner is filled with a strong traditional culture. In this tranquility, the soul is at peace. Walking in this ancient Siheyuan is like traveling back to Beijing a thousand years ago. Every winding and twisting hutong carries a long history and cultural tradition. On the stone road outside the courtyard wall, you can occasionally meet leisurely residents who are chatting in groups, or looking for the long-lost old Beijing snacks and unique fireworks in the streets and alleys.
