Xuanwumen Church

Southern Church is the oldest Catholic Church in Beijing, the Southern Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, is located at 181 Qianmen West Street in the Xuanwumen area. The church was first erected in the middle of the 16th century on the former site of the Donglin party, a political clique active in the late Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).
When the Italian missionary Matteo Ricci came to China during the reign of Emperor Wanli in Ming Dynasty, the emperor provided him with a residence which stood slightly west of the cathedral. The cathedral was rebuilt in 1657 during the reign of Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty. The cathedral was severely damaged by earthquakes in 1775 and 1900, and was rebuilt in 1904 to its present form. The main components of the 100-year-old building remain unchanged with one exception-its wooden support columns have been replaced by brick-and-mortar columns decorated with stone mosaics.
Today the cathedral remains in excellent condition. Masses conducted by more than 10 Chinese Fathers attract an increasing number of Chinese and foreign worshipers every Sunday, and the church is always crowded during Easter and Christmas.

The Wudaokou Hotspots City Brief of Beijing

The Wudaokou hotspots aren't flashy or fashionable. They are, with few exceptions, cheap and welcoming, playing host to hipsties, pop-and-lockers and
hip-hoppers, rochers and ballers, and the jocks and the nerds all at once. Over the past few years, the student crowd and their drinking holes have developed a unique style and neighborhood snobbery. Old cornerstones near the light-rail station like Lush-with its weekly Sunday open-mic night and sinfully scrumptions hangover breakfast-and propaganda-with its grinding meat market-still flourish.

The Most Popular Tourism Great Wall - Badaling

As a symbol of Chinese civilization, the Great Wall was listed as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Great Wall functioned as a fortification in ancient times.

Introduction of Badaling Great Wall

Badaling Great Wall got its name because it’s easily accessible and easy walking conditions. As its name implies it gives access to every direction.

Badaling Great Wall is located on the ridges of Jundu Mountains in Yanqing County, more than 60 kilometers northwest from Beijing. As the most representative part, Badaling Great Wall was promoted as a key national cultural relic. The mountain slope is very steep and the roads are tortuous. Badaling Great Walls were constructed by bar stones and bricks along the top of mountains. These features made it a military stronghold. Badaling Great Wall is like a strong dragon winding its way along the mountain ranges. At the strategic points, there are city platforms, wall platforms and watching towers. The inside of the wall has been formed by tampering earth and small stones, which makes the wall very firm and strong. Internally, the wall is about six meters wide, which would allow horses to gallop five abreast.

Buildings on Badaling Great Wall

There are many holes on the top of Badaling Great Wall called watch-hole, and peepholes under the wall called embrasures. About 1 meter high, the inner parapet was used to prevent the horses and gharries from overturning from the mountains. Along the wall, there are many beacon towers. They were used to transmit military message. Fire and smoke were the most efficient ways for communication in those pre-electricity days. One shot with one smoke meant the enemy was about 100 men; two shots with two smokes meant 500 men and three shots with three smokes meant more than 1,000 men. By this way, a message could be transmitted over more than five hundred kilometers within a few hours.
