Wangfujing Pedestrian Street

In terms of positioning, Wangfujing Street should be consistent with Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street in Shanghai. However, compared with Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, Wangfujing Street is still much less popular and is not as lively as Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street.

In the evening, we came to Wangfujing, the busiest street in Beijing, to look for a place to eat. Five years ago, I lived next to Wangfujing. I didn't expect to come back five years later. Wangfujing Street was basically the same as when I came five years ago: a street of snacks, a bustling commercial street, and a lively crowd. Everything was the most familiar in my memory. It really felt like I was back home.

I passed by and crossed this nationally famous pedestrian street, but I didn't do any shopping and I didn't have any money in my pocket (=_=). And I found that there weren't many people, although there were many famous brand stores here.

This is a commercial street where you can eat many Beijing specialties and buy many local specialties, but the prices are a bit expensive. You can buy Quanjude roast duck, Daoxiangcun cakes and preserved fruits here.

It's a normal pedestrian street. My mother thinks it's just average. If you live nearby, you can go there for a stroll.

The goods are very expensive, so just walk around and take a look to get to know the modern atmosphere of the capital!

There are a lot of people, and the food is average value for money. I prefer to go to Xidan.

It is a regular commercial pedestrian street in a big city.

Wangfujing Pedestrian Street is a famous commercial district with hundreds of years of history and is known as the Golden Street in Beijing.

Wangfujing Pedestrian Street is actually quite famous, so it is worth checking in. The pedestrian street looks more beautiful at night, so you can have dinner here first.

I haven't been there for a long time. I took a walk around after dinner. It's not as lively as before, not as prosperous as Nanjing Road, and not even as good as Xidan.

The place that best represents Beijing's business atmosphere is also a very nostalgic business

Although it's not that great, how can you not go to Wangfujing when you are in Beijing?

You can still stroll around Wangfujing, and the Foreign Language Bookstore is a place I always go to. The snack street is also crowded.

The snacks in Wangfujing, Beijing, look good, but the taste is really terrible.

In my opinion, it’s average, there are mostly shopping malls, and I don’t recommend buying things in the snack street, as they are expensive and not tasty, and they mainly make money from outsiders.

Expensive, expensive, the taxi driver said Beijingers never come here to buy food, and Wangfujing snacks are terrible

北京市東城區中部的一條大街，也是北京市的著名商業街，全長1.8公里，其中南段是王府井步行街。元大都時期，這條街名為「丁字街」。明朝稱「王府街」。清朝光緒將「王府大街」改為「王府井大街」。

Wangfujing Street is very famous for foreign tourists coming to Beijing. Overall, it feels no different from Nanjing East Road in Shanghai. There are many international brand shopping malls and the same crowded pedestrian street. The difference is that there is also a food street here. This food street for tourists is not good or not, but it's worth a visit anyway.

There are quite a few shopping malls. If you want to buy Beijing's special snacks in bulk, you can come here. Other things are expensive and have no special features.

Very leisurely, you can walk around at night~~~

I was on a two-week business trip to Beijing. I took a half-day break on the weekend to experience Beijing's most famous commercial street. Metro Line 1 can go directly to it. Convenient transportation is also a must for a commercial street.

There are a lot of people at Wangfujing Snack Street. I feel really squeezed when I go there on weekends. There are all kinds of snacks, fried chestnuts, sour plum soup, yogurt, grilled squid~ I saw a live scorpion, but I didn't have the courage to eat it

The main road of the pedestrian street is basically full of shopping malls and restaurants. Some restaurants are located in the side alleys, such as Quanjude Roast Duck. It is really difficult to find a place to eat in Wangfujing without queuing at noon.

Not good, very bad 👎 Too many people, no mood

I don't have much idea about Wangfujing anymore. I just remember there was a snack street. What impressed me more than the old Beijing snacks were the fried insects. So this time when I came to Beijing, I asked my friend to take me there to reminisce. There were shopping malls on both sides of the pedestrian street, old and new. The snack street was still crowded.

The street is not very long. The first half is for local specialties and the second half is for big-brand shopping malls. Basically, you can buy what you want here.

Wangfujing Street is very similar to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street in Shanghai, hahaha! There are all kinds of department stores on both sides.

I heard Wangfujing is very famous and has the first department store there.
It should be the first commercial street after the reform and opening up.
There are also many tour groups coming to visit
I feel like Wangfujing has both old and new brands.
I always feel a bit out of touch
Some billboards are really unsightly and look out of place.

After waking up naturally from a good sleep, the girl was still interested in the hotel’s buffet breakfast. After breakfast, she went to the nearby Wangfujing for shopping.

When you get here, all you can do is shop.
It seems that there are such commercial streets everywhere, filled with famous brands.

There are many tourists, and you can buy souvenirs on the pedestrian street.

I went out again at 10 o'clock, and took the subway line 15 again. I transferred to line 8, then line 2, and then line 1. Finally, I got out at Wangfujing Station and headed north to Wangfujing Snack Street. After 10 years, I walked in this alley again, where I wandered when I was doing research in January 2005. I was quite emotional. I remembered that there were five of us, including Lao Jiang, Lao Nian, Rong Rong, Xian Jie, and me. Ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. The brothers have gone their separate ways. Many of them have not met since graduation. So I bought five skewers for 10 yuan as a souvenir. They were really unpalatable. It is true that cheap things are not good things. I saw the ancient well again and took a group photo again. Things are still the same, but people are different. Youth is gone.

Wangfujing Pedestrian Street, the most famous commercial pedestrian street in Beijing

It is said on the Internet that Wangfujing is now heavily commercialized, and it is true. The things sold there are also sold in Shangxiajiu and Beijing Road in Guangzhou, so I don’t think it is anything special. The same things can be found in commercial streets, usually grilled lamb skewers, pork skewers, grilled squid, milk tea, candied haws, Changsha stinky tofu, etc., so it really has no appeal to us.

The road is so wide. I went to Beijing Department Store and looked around, but I didn't find anything special. However, there are two bookstores on the whole street, and I found a rare edition of the Russian root dictionary that is not available anywhere else...

A place you must go to when you go to Beijing~ go to the snack street~

There were so many people that every face was like a world of its own. The rush of emotions in the air was about to overwhelm the street, and then it kept splitting up and flowing into the sea of ​​people, winding endlessly.

I personally think that Wangfujing Pedestrian Street is quite interesting.

There are still a lot of people. It's nice to go for a night view. The consumption is very high. It is not recommended to eat there.

In fact, snack streets all over the country are similar, and they are mainly for fun. The capital is different. The same snacks are much more expensive than other places. However, since I am here, how can I not eat as much as I can! However, the food was too salty and I was thirsty. I went back home and bought a bunch of fruits at night. . .

There are commercial streets around Wangfujing, and there is an Old Beijing Style Street with snacks. We bought fried tripe for 20 yuan/portion, which tasted average, sour plum soup for 10 yuan, candied haws for 10 yuan, and Old Beijing yogurt for 10 yuan/2 bottles. This yogurt is recommended. We also bought Madiel popsicles for 10 yuan/stick, which were delicious.

Beijing Wangfujing is famous, but I was a little disappointed. It probably didn't meet my expectations. It's okay for eating and shopping.

Wangfujing Pedestrian Street is a Beijing-style pedestrian street with a long history. It is a modern commercial brand integrated business district. Let's go to Wangfujing Snack Street first. There are many snack shops, many people, and it is very lively. There are many Beijing time-honored brands, such as Daoxiangcun, Quanjude Roast Duck, etc.

Today, Wangfujing has long developed into the most famous commercial street in Beijing. Even at night, the flow of people is still very large. Friends who need to buy Beijing specialties can come here for a stroll.

Just stroll around and take a look, just like the "famous" commercial streets in most cities, don't do anything else.

Wangfujing Street is not long, and part of the middle section is a pedestrian street. The characteristics of Wangfujing are the traditional Chinese time-honored brands, which are all relatively prosperous business districts, attracting many tourists to visit.

The most prosperous pedestrian and commercial street in Beijing.

The second stop of the 2017 Spring Festival Beijing tour, January 29 (the second day of the first lunar month), it was already past 4 o'clock when I got off the plane and settled in the hotel. I couldn't go to the big attractions, so I could only go to the legendary Wangfujing. But in fact, if you are short on time, it is not recommended to spend a large amount of time here, but you can come here to visit in your spare time. The night before leaving Beijing, I came here again. There are many local specialty stores in the pedestrian street of old Beijing. This time I came here to buy some local specialties to bring back. The traveler on China-TravelNote said that the Catholic Church is very beautiful, so I went to find it specially, and it is not bad.

It's similar to most pedestrian streets. It's worth a visit unless you really have something you have to buy and it's only available in this counter.

The snack street is not bad, the entrance is a bit small. Worth a visit.

Wangfujing has a lot of delicious snacks. The clothes are very pretty, and there are a lot of small commodities. People come and go. It's very lively. You can also listen to opera there... It's worth watching, playing and eating there.

A wide pedestrian street, a gathering place for shopping malls and Beijing's special snacks.

Wangfujing Pedestrian Street is very average and is strongly not recommended

Strong commercial atmosphere, the snack street is also average, sit and watch mentally prepared

Wangfujing Snack Street is very crowded. Actually, I didn't feel anything after visiting it. It's just an ordinary commercial street.

This is a place that everyone who comes to Beijing for the first time will definitely go to.

The old building of Wangfujing Department Store and the statue of model worker Zhang Binggui are probably the only remaining features of this street.

There are many shopping malls, it is a famous shopping spot in Beijing, and the brand discounts are also quite large~

Enter the north entrance of the pedestrian street. Not far from the entrance of ICBC on the west side, there is a well with a dragon pattern on the cover, which introduces the origin of "Wangfujing". There are many delicious foods in the pedestrian street. The famous time-honored brands include Quanjude Roast Duck, Donglaishun Hot Pot Lamb, Daoxiangcun Cakes and Daoxiangcun Beijing Specialty Snacks (look for the Sanhe trademark - three connected "He" characters. There is another Suzhou Daoxiangcun store with the same font but different trademarks). There are many kinds of delicious foods in the Xindong'an Market. After eating and resting, you can go to the famous Beijing Department Store, Xindong'an Market, Oriental Plaza, Xinyansha Golden Street Shopping Plaza, and Wangfujing Xinhua Bookstore.

It is a general commercial street, and commercial activities started here quite early in history.

When I saw a lot of tourist buses parked at the intersection, I knew this was a shopping spot for tour groups. I had no interest in going in to see those rip-off shops.

Wangfujing is a pedestrian street that looks no different from most commercial pedestrian streets in China at first glance, but if you pay a little attention you can see its unique features.
For example, here is the first large-scale department store established in New China, the "Beijing Department Store", with a historical architectural style that can be seen at a glance. Baidu says it opened in 1955.
For example, there are time-honored shops unique to Beijing, such as the Ruifuxiang Silk Shop, which my friend said appeared in the TV series The Mansion Gate. The furnishings on the first floor seem to have returned to the cloth shops of the last century, and the second floor has exquisite cheongsams and embroidery crafts, which are worth appreciating.

Wangfujing Street in Beijing epitomizes Beijing's commercial history

Don't go to the snack street, it's really a rip-off. Don't go there, there's nothing to see. I went to the bookstore to buy a book. I took a break at McDonald's. I left in the afternoon. I really regretted coming here. I went to Beihai Park, which really has the style of a royal garden. Once you go in, you don't want to come out. As shown in the picture.

The legendary Wangfujing, although the dim sum is a bit rip-off (more expensive than the train station), but there are many old shops worth remembering.

A street running north-south, with many shopping malls, and food is a bit expensive

來到北家沒到過王府井步行街就可惜了.但往上來才是美\

A typical commercial street with shopping malls and small shops. Those who have never been here can come and feel the commercial atmosphere of Beijing. The first dinner I had in Beijing was Donglaishun in Wangfujing. Southerners don’t understand its deliciousness and have no idea what they get for 600+ yuan... Since then, I have a traumatic impression of Tonglu Hotpot. The waiters’ attitude is not very good either. How can we, as outsiders, have a good impression of Beijing?

I didn't visit Wangfujing Pedestrian Street much, but there is a food court under the Arts and Crafts Building. Don't go there. The food there is all imported snacks from other provinces and cities. They are not authentic and not delicious. Especially the old Beijing noodles with soybean paste, which is extremely unpalatable. Don't touch this minefield. It is unpalatable and expensive.

It's nice to walk around Wangfujing Snack Street if you like the hustle and bustle. My mom didn't go out much before, let alone see these foreigners. There are many snacks here, so I won't upload pictures one by one. Peeing beef balls, turkey, spring rolls, lamb skewers, and yogurt cost 10 yuan here, but only 5 yuan in Nanluoguxiang, which is very good! You must eat Beijing roast duck when you come to Wangfujing. We have long admired it. As soon as we entered Quanjude, we were stunned by the momentum of the etiquette lady. There were three of them, but we didn't feel that way after eating. It cost 511 yuan, which didn't feel worth it. The service fee was 46, and it was not a single service. But seeing so many tourists, everyone was eating it for the first time, so I didn't care too much. But the roast duck was still very good, but it was a bit greasy at the end... The pedestrian street was all some small things. I bought a lot of bookmarks. Remember, you must bargain. You can bargain down to 80 from more than 200, hahaha. . .

It's expensive and tastes bad. There are also scammers. The conch seller said 5 yuan before buying, and 25 yuan after buying. The octopus is smelly and not fresh.

There aren't many surprises, it's very ordinary, and it's even become a pedestrian street...

The last time I went to Beijing was 30 years ago, and I have been looking forward to coming to Beijing again. But for various reasons, I failed to make the trip. Today, I am fortunate to come to Beijing, a city I have longed for. Some places are different from what I imagined, especially this snack street. Because I am in the catering business, I want to go and see and learn from the food I see, but there is nothing special here. There are too many people and the sanitary conditions are poor.
