A section of Qianmen East Street has recently been built into a new landscape, which is known as the Sanli River in the East City. Passing there, bulldozers roared and were being demolished. Now part of the area has been transformed into new blocks. It's a bit old Beijing. Tourists take photos there. A lot of local old Beijingers also went sightseeing. There is a famous saying that the faces of cities and mothers are eternal memories, winding rivers, authentic alleys and new landscapes of courtyards arouse everyone's interest. At sunset, the reflection in the river is very beautiful. Landscape water is necessary, a small river, adding fresh and spiritual. The narrow river is newly excavated, but there are historical allusions. The exhibition board in the garden said that during the orthodox period of the Qing Dynasty, the name of Sanli River began to be built for fear of overflowing rainwater and opening ditches. I've seen novels about the front door before. There were many brick-carved halls, high-step theatres, large and small hotels with golden plaques in that area. They were very busy business districts. Businessmen would settle down in this area when they rushed to Beijing for exams. The new landscape is different from the noisy front door business district, which is quiet and peaceful. In the evening, the sunset is shining and the breeze is blowing. Tourists walk along the river in the streets and lanes, with the charm of Jiangnan Water Village.

    Before the epidemic, there were many people, and the door could be finches in the epidemic. Now it seems that there are not many people, and many shops are not open. I saw many tower crane owners in the meantime, is this under repair?

    仲夏周末,风和日丽,将车停在北京坊地下停车场,来到前门大街,看看她如今的模样。前门大街是北京非常著名的商业街。位于京城中轴线,北起前门月亮湾,南至天桥路口,与天桥南大街相连。明嘉靖二十九年(1550)建外城前是皇帝出城赴天坛、山川坛的御路,建外城后为外城主要南北街道,民众俗称前门大街。20世纪60年代年代,前门大街东侧从北往南有大北照相馆、庆林春前门大街茶叶店、通三益果品海味店、力力餐厅、天成斋饽饽铺、便宜坊烤鸭店、老正兴饭庄、普兰德洗染店、亿兆棉织百货商店、前门五金店等店铺;西侧从北往南有月盛斋酱肉铺、华孚钟表店、庆颐堂药店、一条龙羊肉馆、盛锡福帽店、公兴文化用品店、祥聚公饽饽铺、龙顺成木器门市部、前门大街麻绳店、前门自行车商店、前门信托商店等店铺。1979年以后,在原有老字号商店和传统经营特色基本保留下来的同时,又陆续开设了五金交电、服装百货、自行车、食品、钟表、化工油漆等新店。21世纪,前门大街经过规划改造,原来的建筑模样已经已经不复存在,被清一色灰墙灰瓦的仿古建筑所取代。唯独原来前门大街北头路西月盛斋的小楼还有点以前的模样,但已是物是人非,悬挂着某咖啡的招牌。如今的前门大街,已经成为步行街,只有老北京的叮当车可以“招摇”过市。独一处、等几家老字号还在,更多的是与时俱进的新面孔。如,宇飞牛肉面,原来在劲松中街的一家亲民牛肉面馆,如今在前门大街也有了一席之地。拐进与前门大街平行的煤市街,还能看到前门大街改造前的老样子。
