Follwing the panoramas of Hong Kong yesterday taken by members of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers in the 1890s here are two pictures they also took when visiting Peking… c.1896…

Hatamen Street (Chongwenmen Street) and adjacent hutongs
The Tartar Wall and its very undeveloped exterior to the south (I think)
