This is a 4 or 5 long block street near the center of Beijing. It's a lot like big shopping streets in the West - wide sidealks, tons of people walking around, big department stores. It's also got some little tables to sit down and watch the upper middle class locals (who are mostly probably tourists themselves) walk around. There's a nice bookstore which has cheap Chinese printed English books in the first two floors and great US priced imported books on the third.
