Shichahai Historic Area
什刹海
Shichahai is composed of Qianhai, Houhai, Xihai and surrounding historical districts. It is one of the relatively well-preserved open spaces in the old city of Beijing. Lakeshores, alleys, former residences of celebrities, temples and royal gardens jointly present multi-level urban life, rather than a single fee-based attraction. There are obvious differences in the atmosphere between early morning, afternoon and night.
