Tour description

Beijing's Dark Chronicles: Where History Bleeds into Legend

This isn’t ghost-hunting—it’s a journey into the raw, untold layers of Beijing’s past. Forget sanitized history; we explore places where bloodstains shaped legends, and whispers of the dead still cling to the walls. 

We blend verified history, folklore, and immersive storytelling—no fictional gimmicks.


📍 PLACES & TOPICS
1. He Nian Tang Pharmacy
   - *Theme*: The "Ghostly Midnight Customers" legend (1405).  
2. Caishikou Execution Ground
   - *Focus*: Stories of Wen Tianxiang, Tan Sitong, and the "Shadow Tailors" who stitched corpses.  
3. Fayuan Temple  
   - *Ritual*: Participate in a brief Buddhist ceremony for restless souls (optional).  
4. Huguang Guild Hall
   - *Secret*: Tan Sitong’s ghost, Peking Opera’s dark ties to male courtesan culture.  
5. Eight Great Hutongs (Final Stop)
   - *Revelation*: Brothel tragedies, opium dens, and how these alleyways fueled revolutions.  

Tip Payments: Cash or alipay, wechat all are okay!
