<正>北京的胡同已不再是小小的街道,它传载着北京几百年的历史和文化。Local officials in Beijing promised to further protect the city’s cultural heritage, in particular the narrow streets known as Hutong.Hutongs are commonly found in the cities of North China, but they are at risk. Beijing is currently believed to have fewer than 1,000Hutongs, most of which are near the Forbidden City. Only 60 years ago, the number was 3,250.In the old districts of Dongcheng and Xicheng,some people will be asked to move from Hutong houses to avoid further damage to the ancient architecture.
