From the Guardian: “The public security forces try to give the impression this is just another street on just another day. Apart from the police car at each end of the narrow alley, the half-a-dozen or so agents all loiter around in plainclothes.

No 6 Fuqiang Alley is a modest, grey-bricked courtyard house of a type once the standard abode for millions of Beijingers. It is located in a warren of hutong alleys, not the sort of place where you would wander by accident. So the steady trickle of people making their way up the alley are all here for a reason – though nobody says why.”
