Synopsis

In a vibrant and modern capital city like Beijing, it is easy to miss some less-known and unreconstructed historical treasures. To find such places takes patience and perseverance but the rewards can be enormous. What is ignored today was once a center of worship or trade or meditation. To visit these places enables people to gain an understanding of the historic continuum that Beijing represents. This book is about exploring this historical city and will hopefully inspire others to discover the knowledge and wisdom that is contained in Beijing's storied past.
