People walk along a traditional alleyway, or hutong, in central Beijing April 5, 2011. Courtyard houses, known as " Siheyuan" in Chinese, used to be one of Beijings most distinctive features, with families living in rooms surrounding a central courtyard. Their elaborate entrances lined alleyways, called " hutongs", that criss-crossed the city. With Beijings fast evolution into a modern metropolis, more and more hutongs are beginning to disappear.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of traditional Beijing, showcasing people strolling along a picturesque hutong, or alleyway. The image was taken on April 5,2011, in central Beijing by photographer Jason Lee for Reuters Images. The photograph showcases the unique courtyard houses known as "Siheyuan" in Chinese. These houses were once one of Beijing's most distinctive features, with families residing in rooms surrounding a central courtyard. The elaborate entrances to these Siheyuans lined the alleyways called "hutongs" which criss-crossed the city. However, with Beijing's rapid transformation into a modern metropolis, many of these historic hutongs are gradually disappearing. This image serves as a poignant reminder of this vanishing cultural heritage and architectural beauty. The composition of the photo is visually striking; it captures both the charm and tranquility that can be found within these ancient alleyways. As people leisurely walk through this traditional setting against a backdrop of old buildings and narrow streets, there is an undeniable sense of nostalgia and history. Through this photograph, viewers are transported back in time to experience an authentic slice of life in old Beijing. It reminds us to appreciate and preserve our cultural heritage amidst urban development and progress.
