The Beijing Hutong is made up of lanes or alleys formed by lines of pre-modern quadrangles (siheyuan), four-sided dwelling compounds or quadrangles consist of one-story courtyard houses, which make up old Beijing, and feature typical Chinese residential architecture.
Beijing road classification was once s follow: A 36-foot-wide road was called a standard, street, an
18-foot-wide one was a small street and a 9-foot-wide lane was named a hutong. In fact, the Beijing
Hutongs are unclassifiable by the traditional standard, ranging from 40 centimeters to 10 feet in width. The
longest hutong has more than 20 turns. It is easy to get lost in the maze of winding lanes hat is the hutong, with the gray-tiled houses and deep alleys crossing each other, all identical in appearance, with many blind hutongs or culdesacs.
Hutongs were first named as such in the Yuan Dynasty(1271-1368), with its Mongolian rulers having
an influence on the Chinese language. However, siheyuan or quadrangles have probably been around

lanes that families play, travel, buy goods, gossip and connect. In beijingers'eyes, hutong means a period

| Advertising is a form of communication that uses all kinds of media, and is visible everywhere these days. Typical customers of advertising companies are other companies, or businessmen, who want to persuade potential customers to buy more of what they make or sell. But there are other kinds of customers. Some organizations spend large sums of money on advertising a political party or other group that sells what is not, strictly speaking, a product or service. Such non - profit organizations are not typical advertising customers, and they prefer ways of spreading knowledge, changing attitudes, and improving society. Many advertisements are designed to increase sales of products and services by either improving brand image or, in the case of non - profit organizations, expressing ideas. In order to achieve th~s, advertisements will often pass on truthful information while delivering their messages.
