Introduction
Beijing Qianmen Street, located south of Tiananmen Square, Qianmen Pedestrian Street is the
largest ancient city preservation area in Beijing and the only planned
commercial district around Tiananmen Square. Like Tiananmen Square and
the Forbidden City, Qianmen Street lies on Beijing's central axis and is
the heart of the capital city of Beijing. Qianmen Street, which will be
rebuilt, is an 845m long tree-lined commercial pedestrian street. Its
central imperial lane and the old trams people haven’t seen for a long
time will be recovered in this ancient commercial street. The buildings
here present the style of an ancient capital, and people can find the
memory of ancient Beijing.
History of Qianmen Street
"The Ming and Qing Dynasties' Qianmen Street was burnt down to ashes in 1900 when the Allied Forces of the Eight Powers ransacked Beijing. Physically, there is nothing left for us to retrieve. The final plan is based on historical photos, and we intend to form a new Qianmen Street in the mould of the 1920s to 1930s.
With its latticework of horizontal alleys, the north-south Qianmen Street prospered as a commercial strip as early as the Yuan Dynasty (1206-1368). By the time of Emperor Jiajing, the 12th Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) emperor, the street was dotted with guild halls built by different localities, to provide housing to citizens intending to take the imperial exams.
Qianmen Street became even more prosperous in the early years of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) with the development of activities such as lantern fairs, theaters and teahouses. Places like the Guanghe Theater -- today threatened with demolition -- and the Quanjude roast duck restaurant are part of Beijing's history.
