Testimonials
‘I like the Hutong so much because it is a cosy, friendly and welcoming place to come to learn new things about Beijing and it’s foods, it’s people and it’s customs. Whether one is a tourist, a newly arrived expat or already tried and proven Beijing laowai, there is always something to pick up from the courses and tours the Hutong is offering.’
