on july 27, 2024, "beijing central axis - a masterpiece of china's ideal capital order" was included in the world heritage list. the unesco world heritage committee believes that the traditional chinese capital planning theory and the philosophical ideas of "zhong" and "he" embodied in the "beijing central axis" have made important contributions to the history of world urban planning. the reporter visited and found that a store called "和木·归gui temple" appeared in hongen temple, the "dragon's tail" of the central axis, which perfectly combines the philosophical idea of ​​"he" with the central axis.

standing in front of hongen temple, the founder of the restaurant, yang zhansheng, said with emotion: "ten years ago, the first store of hemu was opened in the alley in front of hongen temple. at that time, hongen temple was not open to the public yet, so the first store was opened in drum tower. ten years later, the application for world heritage status of beijing's central axis was successful, and hemu restaurant returned to the central axis. this is not only the return of a restaurant, but also the beginning of a new era of food culture. on the central axis, the charm of exquisite beijing cuisine is fully blossomed. hemu shoulders the important task of promoting beijing's food culture, and it is also a confident expression of eastern culture."

the restaurant is designed with the theme of "central axis". in the modern dining space, "time" and "space" are cleverly blended to show the harmonious coexistence of beijing's tradition and modernity, antiquity and innovation. starting from the entrance on the central axis, guided by the symbolic metal wire, it seems as if you have entered a journey through time and space. the gray textured wall unfolds the skeleton of beijing, the brackets and hanging lights depict the veins of beijing, and the vermilion, dark blue, blue-gray... restrained and implicit colors construct the etiquette of beijing.

in the hall, the windows on the wall provide a view of the majestic emperor's hall and the spacious landscape corridor. in the private rooms, the swaying bamboo shadows are the whispers of historical murals and the contemplation of the literati's character. the scenery changes with every step, and the contemporary, modern and ancient times collide to create a unique charm. history is in the present, and art is in front of us.

the heart of harmony blends with time and space; the appearance of beijing is rejuvenated, presenting the ancient charm and modern style. hongen temple has been around for 700 years, and hemu has been around for 10 years. there are too many stories to tell, all of which will be told in the dishes. it may be a thought of zen tea, or six o'clock wine fun, or nine nines return to one time. hemu's classic famous dishes and innovative beijing dishes accumulated over the years have raised the tone of beijing flavor and beijing charm. the soft and chewy aftertaste of the scallion-fried sea cucumber tendons is long; the crispness of the legendary dry-fried meatballs hides legends; the taoist priest can't help but jump over the wall in the overflowing fragrance when a bowl is opened; the encounter between sugar onion and roast duck has its own mystery of hemu.
