Every morning at six, Chen Zhongyi opens the door of his pigeon loft(鸽舍). More than 20 homing pigeons fly into the sky. They circle above the grey roofs of Beijing’s old hutongs. “That’s when I feel happiest in the day,” Chen says.
Chen has lived in Lanman Hutong his whole life. The pigeons are not just a hobby for him. They are part of old Beijing’s culture and a way of life.
In 2018, the hutong began a big renovation. Chen worried that his pigeon loft would be taken down. To his surprise, the designers had a different idea. “Pigeons are part of old Beijing’s culture,” they said. “They should stay.” They built Chen a new, better loft.
The story of Chen and his pigeons shows how a city can change without losing its memories. The hutong got new roads and better parking, but the pigeons still fly above it every morning. Old traditions and new life can live side by side.
