Hu tong

No. 1 Beijing Road, I came here for my friend's birthday. Their specialty is Old Beijing hotpot, a very traditional copper stove hotpot, and their hot lamb is really fresh.

No. 1 Peking Road is a high-rise building located at the intersection with Canton Road and adjacent to Harbour City. The base of the building is home to several big-name stores: Tiffany, Zegna, Cartier, Dior, and upstairs are different restaurants, some of which are Michelin-rated, with sea views. The 28th floor is called "Hutong".

The "Hutong" restaurant in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong is located on the upper floor of K11 MUSEA. It is easy to find. You can see the antique facade when you take the elevator. The decoration in the restaurant is retro Chinese style, with wooden tables and chairs and warm yellow lights. It has the atmosphere of an old Hutong. You can see the Victoria Harbour from the window seats. The light is soft in the evening, which is suitable for taking pictures. The menu is mainly creative Chinese food. Peking duck is the signature, although it is far worse than that in Beijing; black truffle dumplings are also worth a try. The skin is thin and the filling is large. There is soup when you bite it. The black truffle fragrance is obvious but not taste-stealing. The amount of food is not large, but it is exquisite. The waiter speaks softly, will take the initiative to introduce the dishes, add water and change plates in time, and will not make people feel restrained. If you want to experience Chinese food with both environment and taste, you can try it here. Remember to make a reservation in advance. You may need to make a reservation for the window seat.

#ForbiddenCityAlongTheRiverMorningRe-Exhibition A Complete Guide to the ForbiddenCityAlongTheRiverMorningRe-Exhibition! Waiting 3 hours for a 1-minute view? These are essential tips and pitfall avoidance techniques. Who knows! The original "AlongTheRiverMorning", which has only been seen once in a decade, is now on display at the ForbiddenCity Centennial Exhibition! People queued up at 6 a.m., waiting 3 hours to see the painting for only 1 minute, yet they still pushed their way in—that's the allure of this national treasure! Whether you're a parent looking to enrich your child's knowledge, a treasure-hunting antiquities enthusiast, or a young person looking to capture stunning photography, this expert guide will help you avoid unnecessary hassles and maximize your visit. 1. Understand the key points first: Don't miss out! Remember these dates. This time, "AlongTheRiverMorning" won't be open forever. If you want to see the original, you'll need to time it right! It's hidden within the special exhibition "A Century of Guarding: From the Forbidden City to the Palace Museum." The exhibition runs from September 30 to December 30, 2025, from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM daily. It's closed on Mondays, so don't miss out. Important! "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" is only on display until October 29, overlapping with the "Five Oxen" exhibition. If you want to see both national treasures at once, you should definitely go before the end of October. There's also a special exhibition changeover: "Bo Yuan Tie" will be on view until October 14, and will be replaced by "Shangyangtai Tie" and "Fuchun Mountain Residence (Replica)" starting October 15. Collectors can plan their itinerary accordingly. The exhibition is located in the Meridian Gate Hall, and you must enter the Forbidden City through the South Gate (Wumen Gate). Don't go to the wrong entrance or you'll waste time. Second, Tips for Booking and Grabbing Tickets: Be quick! Both steps are crucial. Going without a reservation? No way! Special exhibitions require a dual admission fee: "Forbidden City General Ticket + Special Exhibition Reservation." Tickets are incredibly popular, and even those setting alarms can't get one. 1. To secure a Forbidden City General Ticket: Start using the "Palace Museum" WeChat mini-program 7 days in advance. Tickets go on sale daily at 8:00 PM. Select your visit date and fill in all your personal information. Be quick! 2. To reserve a spot for a special exhibition: Also use the mini-program. Reservations begin at 8:00 PM a week in advance. Search "Century of Guardian Special Exhibition" to find the entry. Refreshing the page multiple times increases the success rate; Ms. Li had to refresh the page three times before securing her spot. Note: Special exhibitions don't sell separate tickets, but reservations are required. Only by completing both steps can you truly "get through." 3. Tips for Waiting in Line to See Paintings: Turn 3 Hours into 1? Time-Saving Techniques Revealed No one wants to wait in line for 3 hours only to see a single minute of the original! To save time, learn these essential tips: - Arriving early is key: We recommend lining up at the Meridian Gate before 7 AM. Some visitors arrive after 6 AM and rush into the exhibition halls first after opening, which can cut queues by more than half. The Forbidden City opens at 8:30 AM, so arriving half an hour early is just right. Remember to bring a folding stool to rest your feet while waiting in line. - Stay on the right track: Enter from the Meridian Gate and turn directly left to the special exhibition entrance. Don't explore other areas first! The special exhibition entrance is on the west side of the Meridian Gate. Follow the signs. This is a one-way tour and you can't turn back, so see the core exhibits first before exploring other areas. - Avoid peak hours: Avoid weekends and holidays. Weekdays, before 9 AM and after 2 PM, tend to have shorter lines. If you're struggling to get in line, try going around 4 PM; you might even find a shorter line. IV. The Art of Painting: Understand the Essence in 1 Minute! Don't just be a "check-in tourist"! Many people only remember the "crowd" and "length" of the painting after viewing it. In fact, the details of the original painting hold countless surprises. Pay close attention to these highlights: - A Variety of Characters: The painting features over 800 diverse characters, including peddlers carrying loads, tourists on boats, shopkeepers calculating bills, and even lazy sedan chair bearers. Each one is vivid and a hundred times more vivid than a print. - Architectural Codes: The styles of Northern Song Dynasty city walls, bridges, and shops are clearly visible. The merchant ships on the Bian River are intricately constructed, even the roof tiles and the patterns on the doors and windows are clearly visible. It can be called an "encyclopedia of life" of the Northern Song Dynasty. - The Story of Conservation: An introduction next to the display case explains that this painting was once taken out of the palace by Pu Jie and returned to the Palace Museum in 1958. A master spent 20 years copying and reproducing it, and every stroke reveals the painstaking effort of a century of conservation. Tips: No photography or extended stays are allowed on-site. It's recommended to view the high-definition digital version of the exhibition in advance on the "Famous Paintings of the Forbidden City" mini-app, note down the details you want to see, and accurately identify them when you arrive. V. Pitfalls to Avoid & Accessibility Guide: Here's What You Can Do After the Exhibition - Don't get stuck on one painting: If you can't stand waiting in line for over two hours, consider exploring other exhibits. The Tang Dynasty's Dasheng Yiyinqin and the Qing Dynasty's Jin'ou Yonggu Cup are both national treasures, and with fewer people, you can explore them more leisurely. - Outfit Tips: Wear comfortable shoes! Just queuing and exploring the exhibition will take tens of thousands of steps. For photos, wear plain colors; the red walls paired with a subtle palette create a truly atmospheric atmosphere. - Food and Beverage: Food inside the Forbidden City is generally expensive, so bring some bread and mineral water to replenish your energy while waiting in line. After leaving the Forbidden City, try a nearby hutong restaurant for some zhajiangmian (fried bean paste noodles) for a great value. - Bonus: After the exhibition, visit the Palace Museum's cultural and creative shop to pick up souvenirs. There are "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" bookmarks and puzzles, perfect for gifts or just as a keepsake. Final Thoughts Some say, "It's not worth waiting in line for three hours to see a minute," but when you actually stand before the original painting, watching the millennia-old brushstrokes flow before your eyes, you experience a sense of time travel that no photo can truly convey. After all, it might be another ten years before you see it again. When are you planning to visit? Did you secure a spot for the special exhibition? Share your plans in the comments. If you didn't, feel free to ask me for tips on securing tickets. I wish you all a successful viewing of this national treasure! #PalaceMuseumAlongtheRiverDuringTheQingmingFinalExhibition
