Qianmen Snack Street, because it is closest to the Forbidden City, was once a market frequented by royal family members of the Ming and Qing dynasties. It still retains several old shops, such as jasmine tea shops and Beijing Zhajiangmian restaurants. Here, the guide will take you to taste more than three different Beijing snacks and drinks. After about two hours of visiting here, you will return to your hotel.
