On the road

About this drive

Take a scenic city drive across Beijing — from the glass towers of the Central Business District to the quiet backstreets of the old city. This real-time route shows a different side of Beijing: wide avenues, modern expressways, and finally the narrow hutongs near Shichahai (a historic lake district in old Beijing), where daily life unfolds between stone walls and timeworn alleys.It’s a quiet side of Beijing few tourists ever see — but locals live it every day.

🎥 Filmed in 4K UHD, with no music or commentary — a peaceful, immersive way to experience Beijing’s cityscape.

✨ Highlights: - Start: East Second Ring Road Greenway - Guomao & CBD: Beijing’s business heart - Dongzhimen to Gulou: Cultural transition zones - End: Hidden hutongs near Shichahai

Perfect for background viewing, city lovers, or anyone curious about Beijing beyond the tourist spots.
