Located in the Drum Tower area, Guang Ming Ge offers a variety of Old Beijing baubles and knickknacks.

Entering the shop, I was first attracted by the Sir Rabbit', or Tu-Er-Yea' as its Beijingers nickname. The item features a colorfully dressed, cat-mounted rabbit with a human body. Legend tells the rabbit was a fairy pet from the moon. It came to rescue people from a plague striking throughout Beijing. The fairy pet later rode a cat so it could move around more quickly to help more people. Beijing People now offer fruits and cakes to it on the mid-autumn day to honor its good deed. Each Tu-Er-Yea' sells for RMB 30.

The shop carries a range of hutong photos, Great Wall clay, and so on. If you want to know the siheyuan, traditional courtyard residences, you should check these hutong photos. Each framed photo cost RMB 100.

Also, there are beautiful items such as white porcelain figurines, straw-weaving animals, opera mask pendant, Chinese zodiac amulet, to name just a few.
