Five years ago travel writer and journalist Jonathan Chatwin set out on a 30 kilometre walk along Beijing’s Chang An Jie, Long Peace Street, from its western point at the former site of Shougang Iron and Steel to its eastern terminus, the Sihui East subway stop.
The result was a book - Long Peace Street - that’s party history, part travelogue. The hardcover was published in 2019, and now it’s available in paperback.
Jonathan Chatwin joins The Beijing Sessions over zoom from England.
