We have a prized location inside the famous Da Zha Lan hutong market streets, which has over over 600 years of history. The Da Zha Lan hutong markets are filled with bustling character, interesting shops, restaurants and stalls and so much more. In fact, it leads right up to Tiananmen Square itself. You can also visit the nearby Qianmen shopping street, which is newly modernized with brand-name stores. Day or night, there's always something interesting to do or see in our area! The Leo Hostel is a traditional Chinese hostel, located in a beautifully decorated hutong with traditional furniture and fittings. As an escape from the busy market streets that surround the area. On the inside, the hostel are several peaceful, green seating areas, where you can relax with a good book or quietly socialize with friends. Along with the normal Beijing tours, we also have some special Leo Hostel tours. Our "Secret Wall' tour is very popular.
You will be the only ones there and you will see the Wall in its most natural form, without cable-cars or sellers chasing you along the wall! You'll also have the chance to visit a local village for a delicious traditional meal. We also offer special Leo Hostel tours to Beijing beauty spots, where you can climb mountains, drift through natural gorges, go horse-riding, try bungee jumping, see ice-sculptures, go ski-ing, and more. And if you want to make your own private tour, we can arrange transportation for you.
During this time of year, its both popular and crowded. So, it's best to phone ahead to book a room at this bargain hostel tucked away down town in Dazhalan Xijie.
