------------------------------
★★ Jianwai SOHO ★★
------------------------------
Jianwai SOHO is located at 39 East Third Ring Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing (opposite the China World Trade Center). The buildings have a total gross floor area of 700,000 square meters on a site of 169,000 square meters. Jianwai SOHO includes 20 high rise towers and four villas. 20 towers four villas and 16 pedestrian lanes are in the complex, along with numerous stores, restaurants, offices and businesses.
------------------------------
★★ Qianmen Street ★★
------------------------------
Located at the central axis of Beijing City, Qianmen Street is a famous pedestrian street for shopping and sightseeing, running from the Archery Tower of Qianmen in the north to the turning of Tiantan Park in the south. It is 840 meters (about 919 yards) in length and 21 meters (about 23 yards) in width. It is composed with buildings whose styles resemble the late Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1911).
Qianmen Street has history of more than 570 years. It was called Zhengyangmen Street during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and finally got the present name in 1965. During the Qing Dynasty, there were many specialized outlets on either side of it, such as a meat market, cloth market and jewelry market. And there were also many craftsman workshops, warehouses and theatres in the Hutongs nearby. Now Qianmen Street becomes an important night life place for locals.
Qianmen is the colloquial name for Zhengyangmen literally meaning "Gate of the Zenith Sun", is a gate in Beijing's historic city wall. The gate is situated to the south of Tiananmen Square and once guarded the southern entry into the Inner City.
Emerging as one of the hottest tourist destinations in Beijing is Qianmen Street which has been revamped as a modern tourist spot.
The bustling street is populated by buildings whose designs and layout still resemble those found in the late Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1911).
Qianmen Street is also known as "Dashilan" shopping street and is one of the oldest and most well-known shopping districts in Beijing.
HISTORY
Its history harks back hundreds of years yet the essential feel of the area remains the same, namely comfortable and relaxed. It is perfect for both Beijing residents and tourists to spend hours walking through as the street extends in all directions and many emerging businesses and designers have made their home in this area.
------------------------------
★★ Galaxy SOHO ★★
------------------------------
Galaxy Soho is an 18-storey mixed-use entertainment, office and retail complex, which opened in November 2012. It is located near the East second ring road at Chaoyangmen in central Beijing, China. The building is spread across a 46,965 square metre site, and stands 67m tall.
The Beijing Galaxy SOHO was designed by Zaha Hadid with Patrik Schumacher and started its construction in 2009. To become an integral part of the living city in Beijing, this urban shopping mall covers a plot area of 46,965m² and has four towers that cater for both office and retail purposes.
The Galaxy SOHO project in central Beijing for SOHO China is a 330 000m2 office, retail and entertainment complex that will become an integral part of the living city, inspired by the grand scale of Beijing.
Its architecture is a composition of five continuous, flowing volumes that are set apart, fused or linked by stretched bridges. These volumes adapt to each other in all directions, generating a panoramic architecture without corners or abrupt transitions that break the fluidity of its formal composition.
------------------------------
★★ Beijing Olympic Forest Park ★★
------------------------------
Beijing Olympic Forest Park was built for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. It was the leisure site for athletes, coaches, and official staff to get relaxed from tense competitions.
The tennis, shooting, and hockey competitions were held there. After the closing ceremony, it has been transformed to the city's back garden for sightseeing, recreation and sports. As the largest urban green landscape in Asia and the largest park in Beijing, one can stroll along the pavement or jog among the greenery to breathe in the fresh air; lovers can have a sweet date by riding a tandem bicycle through grassland and flowers or take a boat on the clear lake to see flocks of koi.
The Park is a good place for families to spend the weekends; with the help of battery cars, even seniors can enjoy the beautiful scenes of the whole park.
#Beijing
Beijing, where the modern sleek and stylish collides with the glorious traditional structures. 🤔 yeah could say that for any city in China really 😂
Wow some drivers just ignore pedestrian crossing lights huh 😬
The Beijing underground looks to cover the city well, 25 lines with 459 stations 😳 that’s near double London Underground 🤯🤣
Hua Chenyu has been made into a waxwork then at Tussauds haha sorry for my ignorance on not knowing who the other two were in the trio picture.
Zaha Hadids Galaxy Soho is crazy, organic and alien looking and I love it. I know some didn’t like it because it’s not Beijing hutong but there are loads of them about and some even listed as protected so something a tiny bit different 😂 is a crowd puller.
The Olympic area is what I expect from you guys and girls, top notch but, no Bing Dwen Dwen or Shuey Rhon Rhon although the latter is for the Paralympics I think which wouldn’t have started yet.
At the start of your Night walk in Shichahai Lake the way the trees are lit and the surroundings of the river and the old style structure with neon lights it gave it quite an enchanting look.
You should start adding at the end of your tours total steps taken during filming at I bet you are raking up serious mileage now.
Thank you for sharing your capital with us, you’re a good man 👊
You're a good man too, my friend.
Your words are good words and your opinions are so interesting and freshing.
Have a great weekend, buddy. Love to read your comments as always!
I personally love China as a country and one of the old civilazation and all the chinese people because of their good friendly gusture behave which amazes me each and everytime. 😊💝💖✨
Love from the people of Bangladesh 😊🤗🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩💝💖
Long live Bangladesh China Friendship 😊🇧🇩🇨🇳💝💖
Thanks for your precious love
Beijing for me is one of the best 10 city in the world a magnificent city!
Welcome to Beijing, my 慈禧 friend
現代化的京城市政建設，道路寬敞整潔，高樓林立設計美觀。曾經在三環路京瑞大廈住宿數天，參觀京城主要景點，包括北京動物園第一次在那兒看到熊貓，胡同，郊外的萬里長城。京城全新的視野與建設風貌，借由博主的視頻拍攝分享，感謝！上蒼祝福您建康幸福！
您的分享让人感同身受，我也忘记不了自己第一次见到京城的震撼感。。。
看不到 老 北平 的 景色 了。
Love Beijing! Modern, clean with rich history. I was already quite impressed when I went to Beijing 20 years ago, but definitely not as clean and modern as now!
Totally agree!
Have a nice day, Dandelion!
Rise and shine China 🇨🇳, Rise and shine the world 🌏
I love how in some ways, China has cities that look more futuristic than futuristic cities in movies. ❤❤❤
Wow, you are so lucky to be in Beijing between the Olympics and Paralympics. This is really a great moment for China to show the world the progress that it has made.
Yes, friend, but I can't get the tickets for the Olympics games for COVID issue...What a pity...
@@WalkEast Yes, that is a pity. What an amazing opening ceremony it was, the best ever. The message of peace and harmony made me cry. Do you notice any extra decorations in Beijing during the Chinese Lunar New Year and Olympic games?
@@WalkEast Road view please-- Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong-Zuhai-Macau bridge
@@mibofficial99 Next video
@@HKChineseCanadian The extra decorations are gorgeous in Beijing, my friend
thanks for sharing the real look of Beijing, miss everything there, wish I could go back some day in the near future. This is where I was born. Even though I lived most of my time in the past 40 years in the US, every time I went to Beijing feels so warm from the heart. Love the people and food.
Hahaha , beijing look like garbage compared to new york .. 🇺🇸 💪
As cidades chinesas são grandiosas e lindas, não me canso de admirar.
Obrigado por seu apoio maravilhoso e tenha um bom dia!
Beijing will grow into Super -modern great city,
but it must preserve all its memory-rich Hutong spaces !!!!
Agree
I love Beijing, i love Beijing citizen, i love Chinese, your country is beautiful and amazing. ❤❤❤✌✌
Love back to you, Gugun!
I wish New York was as clean as this! What a beautiful, clean, modern city! All I've seen of Beijing is the airport, so I hope I can come back and explore someday. I'd love to see these buildings in person! What an awesome walk ❤️
I hope so too!

@@oliverbanes5121 this is how you have been brainwashed to believe
@@thecomment9489 you are a typical westerner with colonial mindset still being brainwashed by your own media propagandas that the West is still superior to others
Communism is the best

Totally agree

Sean, god bless you with good health too, dear friend
I love walking because it clears your mind, enriches the soul, takes away stress, and opens up your eyes to a whole new world. Thanks for sharing this amazing video. 😍
Well said!
I went in 2019... seems so long ago. I had a great time over there!
Before COVID....thanks for your sharing
Hay quá
Beijing is a very big city, and the landscape varies from place to place
Thanks, buddy
Thanks for uploading this vlog! It was great to see BJ again and to see how it has changed since I left China in 2019. The most striking thing for me is the absence of crowds, especially around, Houhai and Xidan Shopping Mall, and how utterly commercialized 前门街 has become compared to its old bustling self. Its hutongs have disappeared and it has lost its old charm to be replaced by upscale malls and fancy boutiques (similar to what happened with the Yashow market in Sanlitun) . The only place that appears unchanged is Galaxy SOHO which even back in 2019 had no crowds as I don't think it can compete with Sanlitun (三里屯) SOHO. All of this is just my opinion of course but I am grateful to you for uploading this vlog . Beijing is a GREAT city and I loved living there. Hope to go back very soon.
Thanks for your nice sharing, friend
Appreciate it.
It will be more difficult to get in this time. I have several friends who are top-north professionals and the waiting is crazy. Most likely not ever.
you make very good videos
Thank you very much!
Love china 💞
Beijing really reminds me of LA. The building the vibe
Thanks for your tips
This country IS fantastic
🌻🙌
Super👍👍, next time create a driving tour video around the Beijing
No problem about the driving video!
good
Thanks
Nice. Used to live in Haidian district.
Wonderful

Would like to go to Beijing someday. side note: Love the intro song.. hehe..
The intro song is THE ITCH from NEFFEX
博主继续加油，你的视频发海外指不定能影响很多人的思想和志向以及人生发展规划，功德无量啊
哈哈，没那么夸张，就是一点纯街景，中性，满足一下他人云旅游而已😁
Good day Max! The northern capital is a big, clean and modern city with an old past, but I like the southern cities of China and the center of China most of all, probably because there is a completely different atmosphere. But I liked the video walk around Beijing especially the pedestrian street because there are unusual facades of buildings that I have not seen anywhere before! Thanks for the walk! Will there be another video about Beijing!? I would like to see something very old in Beijing!
You would see a video of very very old place in Beijing in the future.
Thanks, my friend, your sharing is always great
I love china 🔥🔥
Love back to you!
All the places you walked the too beautiful.The less glorious old Beijing city and streets and residential areas of ordinary people is also real Beijing, full of flavour
Thank you, friend, thank you
Love💯💞💯💞💯from belize

Beijing (China in general), is on my list of Top 3 countries I want to visit one day !! ❤️❤️❤️
Welcome!
What are other two countries?
@@Nature-kv1mr Canada and Argentina
我有亲戚住在附近，以前经常来前门大栅栏一带。这里完全变了。其实不管是中国哪里，以前去过还是没有去过，其实都一样，因为每时每刻都在发生改变，都需要重新探索，过去的都只是记忆。谢谢视频制作者带给我们的精彩视频享受，不用出门就可以游览祖国各地的巨变！感谢！🙏😊❤
您看来很有感触哈
嗯嗯🤔
1:42:00 This are looks gorgeous at night 🤩
Thanks
( Very Beautiful )
Thanks for your support🐯🤘🏻
My first step city when I go to the china
Welcome, welcome!
👍👍👍
China knows discipline, and in all means of provision of what the people needs, and it is given back to the people that made/makes many things happen, beyond the things imaginable and unimaginable of what China is today, and what it would like to always impart to the rest of the world.
Thanks, friend
The national system competition is all about comparing kitchens and garages
Those towers. Wow. Impressive how people can build such empires and companies. And I haven't even been able to build a life for myself.
Welcome to visit there
Very, very beautiful ♥️
Thank you! 😊
@@WalkEast Love to see it personally,by myself.
@@Kampala_Harris Totally welcome!
看了您大部分徒步视频，北京部分给我最深刻印象，尤其是走在这些明清建筑旁。期待您日后能有更多的北京徒步视频，若是能在雪后的北京走在这些古建筑旁，红墙黄瓦白雪，景色必定震撼。
雪后或者雪中的北京漫步，一直是我这几年的期盼，只需等到疫情管控好一点之时，这个下雪冬天的京城古建筑旁，必定有我的身影。。。
@@WalkEast 万分期待🌹🌹🌹
34:56 哎呀麻，肥嘟嘟海盗猫！（max还是那么爱抓拍小动物，很有爱）
哈哈哈，我还不小心吓到她了。。。真心肥嘟嘟的，很圆很圆。。对这样的小可爱没有抵抗力啊。。
Thank you so much! Miss Beijing. Lots of memory. Really appreciate. :)
