"I will paint and sketch for as long as I can. One day, when I can't anymore, I will search for other forms of expression, but that won't happen today."

The days of Hutong have long gone, but fortunately Kuang Han has continued to document it with his art. He still uses his art to revive the Hutong culture of old Beijing.

According to figures, since 2011, The Beijing Municipal government has published 8 batches of Historical and Cultural Sites Protected at the National Level, encompassing a total of 357 Hutongs, including famous ones such as Shijia Hutong, Zongmao Hutong, Weijia Hutong.
