Located close to the north gate of the Forbidden City, 10 mins walk east to the famous Wangfujing shopping street and further 10 mins walk onwards to Sanlitun bar street. Out of the hostel on the right is the 'Dongsi Metro Station' on the new subway line 5, you will arrive in Tiananmen Square in 4 stops and we're also 4 stops straight down to the Temple of Heaven. This Metro line connects all the important places of interest including the Capital Airport, Beijing Main Station, Summer Palace, Dragon Temple Street … famous for its cosmopolitan clothing stores, with the new subway being right at the main entrance.

The hostel is within walking distance from the Forbidden City's North entrance and the famous JingShan park, where from the hill-top pagoda you can see amazing views over the Forbidden City. Within the park you can also usually find traditional Chinese activities, such as Tai Qi/Kung Fu practice, traditional dancing, singing and music. By entering the Forbidden City by the North gate and leaving through the South gate you arrive at Tiananmen Square and the new Qianmen pedestrian street.

Just behind the hostel is a huge network of 'hutongs' (Beijing's traditional old streets) where you can explore and witness real traditional Beijing life and eat authentic Chinese dishes. There are also a few chic café/bars hidden in the hutong streets.

The hostel is centrally located. Nearby there is a subway stop, bus stops, banks, large supermarket, large post office, a hospital, large cinema, pool halls, bars and many restaurants (both Chinese and Western).
