The 9 Gates of Old Beijing: Then vs Now

This video has got everything: Giant white pagodas, narrow alleyways, roundabouts, river walks, old gates and a deep dive into the history of Beijing! Grab your subway card, put on some comfy shoes and join me as I continue my exploration of the 9 old gates of Beijing, which allowed commodities from water to coal to grain to enter the precious inner city but kept invading armies (mostly) at bay!! This is part 2 of my two-part video along the 600-year-old wall that encircled old Beijing and which guided the construction of the second subway line in the city.
