In late autumn, it's a pleasant thing to find a terrace with friends, enjoy a cup of coffee, and admire the beautiful scenery of Beijing. This issue, the cultural and tourism editor recommends several coffee shops with terraces for you to check in!Sugar House Coffee

Sugar House Coffee, located on the third floor of Qingyun Building near Shichahai, has a terrace with a view of the Drum Tower, attracting many tourists to check in.

Following the wooden stairs, Sugar House Coffee appears in front of you. After ordering on the third floor, you can choose to go to the terrace area. Two or three dozen coffee tables are placed on the top terrace, with gray brick walls, wooden tables and chairs, and several pots of roses in the corner. Looking down, there is a rippling lake surface and drifting boats below, and in the distance is the skyline of the Bell and Drum Tower and CBD. Time seems to slow down at this moment.

Here, you can enjoy coffee, cold drinks, or simply have a meal. Looking at the quiet Shichahai lake and the ancient streets, you will feel peaceful and relaxed.Address: 3rd and 4th floor, Qingyun Building Restaurant, No. 22 Qianhai East Road, Xicheng District, Beijing

Walking into the door of Xisi Coffee, the most eye-catching thing is the various instruments hanging on the wall in Morandi color. It turns out to be a musical instrument-themed coffee shop. On top of the specialty "Xisi Latte" milk foam, there are musical notes carefully drawn by the barista. There is also a Chinese style latte with black and white ink painting effect, which is definitely eye-catching when posted on social media.

Holding a cup of coffee and sitting on the terrace is like being in a paradise. Taking the straight elevator to the top floor, when the elevator door opens, there is a white wall and black tile with pine trees and cypresses on the shadow wall, and the word "invite clouds" is written on it. Going around the shadow wall, there is actually a spacious terrace, large enough to have multiple green spaces and swing chairs beyond the coffee table.

Here, you can not only overlook the Wansong Laoren Pagoda and the Honglou Public Library, but also have a distant view of the White Pagoda in Beihai Park. It is really a comfortable place in autumn.Address: 1st floor, Hualesong Hotel, No. 18 Xisi South Street, Xicheng District, Beijing

Walking into the Bai Ta Si Pharmacy on Fuchengmen Inner Street, a faint scent of Chinese herbal medicine comes to your face, and the taste of coffee is not so prominent. The modern decoration style inside Yaoke Coffee is in sharp contrast to the quaint pharmacy on the same floor.

Yaocoffee is jointly operated by the White Pagoda Temple Pharmacy with over 150 years of history and the nearby White Pagoda Light Cafe. After taking photos at the nearby red wall, tourists can come here for a drink and then stroll through the nearby hutongs to enjoy the autumn scenery.

The first three gates of Beijing are collectively known as Qianmen, Xuanwumen, and Chongwenmen. The café is located within the boundaries of the first three gates and the design of the store incorporates elements of the three gates, hence the name "Qian San Men".

The overall style of the store is retro Chinese, with two floors of space. Upon entering the first floor, there is a bar and ordering area, with green plants subtly incorporated into the rugged style.

When the weather is clear, the second floor is bright and transparent. Sitting on the outdoor terrace, all that can be seen are the green bricks and gray tiles full of old Beijing atmosphere. In the late autumn afternoon, accompanied by warm sunshine and coffee aroma, you can fully experience the tranquility and life of the hutongs.

Egg Mocha, Summer Night, Liquid Tiramisu, Chestnut Autumn... Qian San Men specializes in specialty coffee, with regular hand-drip Italian coffee, sparkling water, pure tea, and fruit tea also available.

Holding coffee and desserts, climb up the stairs to the stunning second-floor guest area. The industrial style of "cement + green plants" features exposed walls and lush greenery, making people feel as if they are in an ancient tropical rainforest.

The stairs from the second to the third floor are pure white, with tropical green plants planted by the owner on the table.
