Wangfujing Street

To get there take Line 1 , and get off at Wangfujing

It’s finally Spring!

Wangfujing is a kilometer (or more) long street with Malls and Branded Stores on either side. They also have local stores where you can pick up souvenirs and other stuff..

What you shouldn’t miss when you’re here is the Food street! Chinese snacks-Cricket, Locusts,Star fish, Baby Sharks, Sea Snakes, Sea Mushrooms what not!! We were not too daring and stuck to chicken :-) The food street’s open only in the evenings, so make sure you visit Wangfujing for an evening stroll.


Around the corner there is the Foreign Language Book Store. They have a good collection of English books and movies.

There’s a very beautiful Church here.The St.Joseph's Catherdral. One of the oldest in Beijing. With the lighting and the Cherry blossom trees around it’s a popular spot to take photographs. (that’s if you don’t mind the kids skateboarding around!) English mass is usually held at 4pm every Sunday.
