Olympic Moments-From a Different Angle (Part 4- More on South Luogu Lane)

Wondering in the Hutongs.

A craftsman showing off his works of “Hairy Monkeys”, a traditional craftsmanship. Cicada legs and Magnolia are being glued together to make miniatures of monkeys, which play different roles in a series of stories.

Kids playing with a bronze basin (don’t remember what it’s called in Chinese), when rubbing the sides of the basin, bubbles come out from the bottom of the water. I’m not familiar with the mechanics behind it since I’ve never passed a Physics exam in high school.

Peeking into a shop window.

An interesting and creative gift shop.

T-shirts with a taste of the old Beijing.

Trace of the revolutionary slogans can be found on the wall.

People waiting for cheese outside of Wenyu Cheese Shop.

Fish Nation, offers great fish & chips and Greek salad.

A pottery shop.

A very interesting and unique hotel inside a Hutong. Some reported seeing floating head in the hotel. You might wanna try here if you come to Beijing :)
