There are many neat long alleys between Dongsi and Dongdan. There is a historian alley in the east of the road. As for the origin of the name of Hutong, it is generally said that because there are historic temples in Hutong, its address is now Historian Hutong Primary School. The strong cultural and artistic flavor in the historian alley comes not only from the primary school of the historian alley, but also from the dormitory of the People's Art Theatre in the alley. The old artists of both virtue and art have added cultural thickness to the ordinary alley. As the oldest and most qualified actress in Chinese drama circle, the performing artist Ye Dajie, who devoted herself to the cause of stage art all her life, once starred in movies "us two", sitcom "Big Sister Ma idler" Jin Yaqin, and her wife Niu Xingli, a famous performing artist of Beijing Renyi, all lived here.
