Duyichu Shaomai

The restaurant was a small hut when it was set up in 1738 (the 3rd year of Emperor Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty) by a man named Li from Shanxi Province. In the 7th year of Emperor Qianlong's reign or 1742, a small building was built to sell boiled peanuts, sugared date, aired meat and so on.

In the 17th year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, it became famous because of the name Duyichu and the Tiger Head Plaque granted by the emperor. During Emperor Tongzhi's reign, the restaurant added in his menu Steamed Dumpling which had thin coat, rich stuffing and tasted delicious. During the war against Japanese, it survived from closing down and suffered poor business until its rebirth when Beijing was liberated. After the Joint Public-Private Ownership reform, the restaurant moved from the south of Xianyukou to the north of it into a large building with 200 square meters in business space. Nowadays it is capable to receive two or three thousand person times per day. The Tiger Head Plaque inscribed by Emperor Qianlong is hanging in the center of the hall reads Duyichu, and another plaque inscribed by Guo Moruo is hanging in the entrance.

Best China Tours from Beijing to Xian Flight Tour

I have been to Beijing five times and have already visited the representative attractions like the Great Wall, Forbidden City, Summer Palace, etc. This time is a family journey and we decided to join the China group tour from Beijing to Xian at first.

Arrived at Beijing in the late afternoon, after dropping our luggage to the hotel we cannot wait to start our trip in Beijing. We went to the famous Longfusi Snack Street to enjoy the typical Beijing food. Various kinds of snacks! There are authentic Douzhi, focus ring, Luzhu, as well as all kinds of skewers here and there are also some typical Muslim restaurants. The taste of Douzhi is terrible! It smells terrible and just a small spoon I found it hard to drink. The cakes there is very delicious and all of them with very cheap prices.

Terra Cotta Warriors

In the early morning we were picked up from our hotel and transferred to the airport. After one and an half hours we got to Xian – another ancient capital city of ancient China. During the one day tour we visited the famous Terra Cotta Warriors and Ancient City Wall.

The Terra Cotta Warriors is the eight world wonders and it deserves the fame. In a vault of approximately 12,000 square meters and 5m underground lay some 8,000 terracotta infantry soldiers, archers, cavalrymen and chariots arranged in battle formation, ready to defend their emperor's immortal soul. The Terra Cotta Warriors show a high level of artistry with individualized facial expressions, hairstyles and clothing and were once brightly painted with black armor, colorful red scarves and green pants. As well as seeing, the tour guide explained to us the history and the story about Qin Dynasty.

After lunch we arrived at the ancient city wall of Xian. The tour guide told us that it is the most complete city wall survived in China as well as one of the largest ancient military defensive systems in the world. Around the old wall, there are jutting ramparts, sentry towers, corner towers, gate towers, battlements, and a series of city defensive fortifications that were scientifically and compactly laid out with very strong defense capability.

Then we took the late afternoon fight back to Beijing.
