Guijie or Ghost Street is a 1442-meter long gourmet street, located within Dongzhimennei Dongcheng District, running from the east of Dongzhimen Bridge. The street is lined with over 100 restaurants and most of them offer 24-hour service. The business here is particularly booming at night, when the street sparkles with red lanterns lightening. Locals, expats, tourists and businessmen flock here each night. The restaurants here serve a great diversity of dishes, including Sichuan, Canton, handong dishes, as well as snacks, barbecue, and ethnic minority dishes. Most of the restautants are focused on the common market - ordinary people with reasonable prices. But now some deluxe restautants have mushroomed too. The 1500-meter street is divided into three sections from east to west by three traffic lights. Within two traffic lights from east to west, are located some newly established luxury restautants offering business meals. Starting the third traffic light from east are the courtyard-style restaurants. Many people like to come to the third section due to its traditional surrounding, delicious local flavors with reasonable prices. Huajiayiyuan is one of my favorites on the street. If any chance, i will defintely choose this restaurant to entertain my friends or business partners. Huajiayiyuan is a three-courtyard-connected restautrant which offers its own style cuisine - Huajia Cuisine. After dinner at Guijie, walk for two traffic lights westward, you will find Nanluoguxiang on your left hand. Choose a quite bar and kill your time, a perfect way for nightlife in Beijing!
