Getting Around

The best way to get around in Beijing is by Subway. We recommend you to buy the 易通行app, where you can pay for the ticket using your phone without needing to buy a physical ticket.

Food Scene

One of my favorite restaurants for Pho and some craft beers. It's a minute walk from the Houhai lake, not noisy at all.

Cheapest yet very tasty brunch place in Beijing. Has a quiet rooftop where I like to spend my Sunday morning writing away.

Sightseeing

One the most historical and popular attraction in Beijing.
A nice place for an early morning or evening stroll. This area is an easy 20 minutes bike from our place. I've been visiting there every weekend unless I have to work.

Since I don't like the noise, I prefer to walk away from the bars. On the south part of this lake, you can often find a quiet spot to see the lake, sometimes some locals swimming also.
