As the Two Sessions approach and the Spring Festival is around the corner, the Secretary and District Mayor personally introduce new achievements in high-quality development. They invite you to experience new cultural consumption scenes and unlock new landmarks of urban renewal!
Shijingshan is the west gate of the capital city, nestled against the Daxishan Mountains and embracing the Yongding River—half mountain, half city. Today, the top leader of Shijingshan District, Secretary Chang Weicheng, has become the "One-Day Recommender" for Shijingshan, passionately showcasing the beauty of Shijingshan.
Ancient charm, New beauty - Ascend for a distant view
At the Monument Pavilion atop Shijingshan, the view is incredibly broad, capturing the beauty of the western part of Beijing. Secretary Chang introduces, "From here, we can overlook the entirety of Shijingshan: the new landmark of the capital city's revival, Shougang Park, has become a hub for winter sports with the big air as a representative; the area representing commercial, travel, and leisure centered around Liu Gong Hui; and the new sci-fi immersive park around Blast Furnace No. 1 and No. 3. During the Spring Festival, this place creates a very rich consumer scene."
Standing on the Monument Pavilion, the mother river of Beijing winds through on the west side, and to the southeast are the former sites of Shougang Park's ten-mile steel factory. The S1 Maglev Line and Fengsha Line pass through the mountains from the northwest. The unique geographical conditions, combined with ancient relics scattered in the mountains, have made Shijingshan famous throughout history, attracting many literati and poets to leave their inscriptions. After its reopening, Shijingshan, with the Monument Pavilion, will once again attract public attention, becoming a great place for citizens to enjoy panoramic views and leisurely walks in the western part of Beijing.
Beijing's most beautiful streets - Feel urban renewal amidst the sound of camel bells
Next, Secretary Chang takes us to the Moshiko Historical and Cultural District, the most beautiful streets in Beijing. Here, you can see camel-shaped seats, camel sculptures, camel bell lamps, and other elements of the "Camel Bell Ancient Road," creating a unique and charming landscape.
It is reported that the "Ancient Road Still Exists" was originally the "West Old Temple." Now, it undergoes protective restoration according to the "one-yard, one-plan" renewal method, introducing museum exhibition models and high-quality trendy coffee formats.
Authentic Italian cuisine + Traditional Beijing-west quadrangle courtyard guesthouse - How many surprises await?
We arrive at No. 51 Moshiko, the "Beautiful Mountain" courtyard in Shijingshan. Originally old houses with serious unauthorized constructions, after renovation, it continues the traditional Beijing-West quadrangle courtyard architectural pattern, emphasizing regional architectural features. It uses local traditional building materials such as small blue tiles and the Beijing-West chessboard-style roofs. The staggered eaves correspond to the distant peaks, presenting a street, a view, and a courtyard, reappearing the charm of the past.
It is introduced that after the opening of the "Beautiful Mountain" courtyard, the operating format includes boutique accommodation + catering, with the main focus on Italian cuisine. To bring authentic Italian cuisine to Moshiko, the restaurant specially invites world-class Pizza competition champion chef Pino to regularly supervise and control the quality, creating a brand new high-quality and authentic Italian dining experience.
The top leader extends a warm invitation: The charm of the west gate of the capital city is infinite - Welcome, everyone!
After ascending the Monument Pavilion, visiting the "Ancient Road Still Exists" courtyard, and enjoying the Italian cuisine at the "Beautiful Mountain" courtyard, Secretary Chang's one-day tour as the Shijingshan Recommender comes to an end.
Secretary Chang calls out to everyone here: "Today, together with all of you, I have felt the profound changes in Shijingshan. We hope more friends will come to our Shijingshan, walk around, and experience this rising city of revival, vitality, beauty, and quality. Experience firsthand the infinite charm of the west gate of the capital city!"
