Hutongs occupy a particularly important position in Beijing's rich and colorful historical and cultural corridor. Hutong, as the general name and representative of Beijing's streets, not only constitutes Beijing's transportation network and is related to Beijing's urban pattern, but is also the basis of Beijing's urban life and a place for Beijing residents' activities, and has thus become an important stage for the development of Beijing's history and culture. This book uses the formation, naming and development of hutongs as a framework to interweave the pattern and changes, interest and customs, history and legends, personnel and environment, past and reality. It not only has a clear context and a concise outline, but also takes into account all aspects of the historical and cultural connotation of Hutongs. \U003Cdiv\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E
