Qianmen Dajie - Tram - a photo on Flickriver

Recently reopened after a costly overhaul, this shopping street – now pedestrianised and 'restored' to resemble a late Qing-dynasty street scene – was designed to bring the tourist dollar to a once charmingly tatty area. As late as the 1950s, this road was called Zhengyangmen Dajie (Facing the Sun Gate St), after Front Gate immediately north. Visitors are today treated to the rebuilt Qiánmén Decorative Arch and invited to hop on one of the two reproduction trams to glide along the street.
