The Hutongs

So hutong in Mandarin means alleyway, pretty much. This particular hutong (which doesn't have a hutong address for some reason) is called Nanluogu Xiang and is a former kind of crappy alley all done up. It's pretty targetted at tourists and it was fun. There are a lot of shops selling tourist type stuff like leather bound books, crockery, pens (I bought a mousepad cause I really need one at home :) and we also managed to find someone selling mojitos (they were pretty good!).

We then had some dinner on the roof of a restaurant which was very nice

Once we were done with the hutong we walked home. On the way home we went past "Ghost Street" which is one of the streets with heaps of restaurants. Everyone wanted us to come inside, we got yelled at by everyone as we went down the street!
