Harmony between tradition and modernity

Off-peak trip to Gubei Water Town

Not a lot of people have seen the beauty of Gubei Water Town at this time of the year. Located in the Miyun district of Beijing, the small town is renowned for its architectural style and the mountain-water-scenery surrounding it.

Row upon rows of houses, old quartzite streets and long hutongs mirror scenes of the old town of the early 20th century in northern China. River channels are scattered between streets. Tributaries of ancient Tang River run through rows of old residential buildings and other old architectures, as if a land of idyllic beauty is being especially adorned by refreshing air, blue sky, white cloud, clean water and towering abeles. When the night falls, the well-designed ancient town presents tourists with an extraordinary and fantastic night view, giving off a whiff of warmth. This town, featuring witty design and grand style, is second to none in China and a must-see attraction for all tourists.
