It had been 57 years since the Fangshan Restaurant settled down in Qiong Island and now it is going to move to a new place. The new place is on the north bank of Beihai, where the restaurant was there in 1925. On April 18, the restaurant was suspended.

Mrs. Li went there to have a family meal but just found that there was a notice that said that “Fangshan Restaurant will move to the north bank of Beihai, and during this period the restaurant is closed temporary.  According to our plan, the restaurant will open in late May. Thanks for your understanding.”

According to the management apartment, the place where the restaurant settles on now was surrounded with ancient buildings. So, to protect these old architectures, the restaurant should be moved away. After the restaurant moves away, this place will be used as an exhibition place for the “History of Beihai Park”.

The new restaurant on the north bank of Beihai is still surrounded by barriers but the new decorations can be seen by many tourists. Two trucks are unloading goods here.

It is said the new one will be smaller than the old one for that can only serve 300 customers at a time.
