Yangmeizhu Xiejie is one of the best hutongs to visit in Beijing. It is not only a collection of colorful traditional cultural skills, but also has a strong flavor of old Beijing fireworks. Yangmeizhu Xiejie starts from Meishi Street in the east and ends at Yanshou Street in the west. It was called "Slanting Street"(Xiejie) in the Ming Dynasty because it slanted from northeast to southwest. Later, it was renamed Yangmeizhu Xiejie during the Guangxu period in the Qing Dynasty.

Yangmeizhu Xiejie is a small literary street that you can't miss when strolling around the South City. Here you can find exquisite stores such as Model Bookstore, Suzuki Canteen, independent coffee shop Soloist Coffee Co, and Beijing Postcards with creative design. The narrow hutongs hide poems and remote paradise and store the whimsical ideas of handicraft artisans. The creepers wind through the mottled white walls, outlining the early summer dreams of the literary youth.
