Go at your own pace.
From a teahouse to a street full of small eateries: choose one neighbourhood or one flavour and make an afternoon of it together.
Here's how to do it.
- Explore a public part of a hutong neighborhood in Beijing and take turns choosing a side street that sparks your curiosity.
- Stay on public streets and respect residents' privacy.
- Choose a short route with a start and end point beforehand.

Not in Beijing? Find an older neighborhood in your city to explore using the same take-turns route.
