Wudaoying Hutong

Wudaoying Hutong is located on the North Second Ring Road. In the Ming dynasty, there were barracks guarding the city stationed here, called Wudeweiying. In the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu bannermen renamed it "Wudaoying" according to the pronunciation of "Wude". After Qianlong Period, the appearance of hutongs was basically formed here. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were 69 courtyards in this 600-meter-old hutong, and it was officially named "Wudaoying Hutong" in 1965.

Watch LiveHouse

As one of the most literary hutongs in Beijing, Wudaoying Hutong is not only a gathering place for literary and art shops, but also a well-known place to see the live house.

"Livehouse" is short for "Live Music House". Unlike the bar with demanding singing techniques, the live house show highlights the rhythm of instrumental music and the charm of the band. It is a real-time, unembellished, and unchoreographed live performance.

Come to Wudaoying Hutong and feel the enthusiastic atmosphere of the live house!
