Meer over het boek
The alleys and lanes took their initial shape in the early 13th century. From then on to the 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 have their houses located in these lanes. As people for generations have lived and worked here, a popular history and culture unique to Beijing has gradually developed and evolved out of the lanes and the people who reside in them. A look at the alleys and lanes will help one trace the path of history and culture and gain an understanding of the unique way of life in Beijing, while also allowing one to feel the pulse of the people in this town.
