Hey there! 👋 Have you ever imagined a place where grandparents and teenagers hang out and have fun together? Well, in Beijing, there’s a special spot called Courtyard No. 27 that’s making this happen!
Niu Ruixue, a creative and warm-hearted person who loves Beijing, founded this awesome activity center in an old neighborhood. The area is mostly home to elderly folks, but thanks to Niu, it’s now filled with laughter from both the young and the old! 😊
At Courtyard No. 27, they have cool programs like “Inter-generational Cosplay”, where teens and grandparents dress up as their favorite characters together! Can you picture your grandma as a superhero? 🦸♀️ It’s a fantastic way for different generations to share stories and enjoy time together.
They also celebrate a 300-year-old Lantern Festival called “Myriad of Lights”. The alleyways light up with colorful lanterns, bringing joy and excitement to everyone. 🏮✨
Thanks to people like Niu, the old streets, known as hutongs, are becoming lively cultural spots where traditions meet modern fun. Courtyard No. 27 shows how bringing generations together can make communities brighter and happier! 🎉
