There are many folk entertainment venues and commodity markets in Beijing. It is located in the vast area north of Nanwei Road outside Qianmen, south of the western ends of Yong 'an Road and Shuguang Road, east of Tokyo Road and west of Xitanggen of the Temple of Heaven. Three generations of Yuan, Ming and Chiba were all water country Zeguo, and one of them was a single-hole white marble bridge built in Yuan Dynasty (located at the intersection of Nanqiao Street today), which was the only way for the Ming and Qing emperors to worship heaven, hence the name "Tianqiao" and the name of the nearby area.

Tianqiao has always been synonymous with Beijing artists.

Tianqiao is the birthplace of many folk arts. Artists perform in the overpass, usually in the open air, commonly known as "throwing the ground." There are five or six hundred folk artists who study, sell, spread and live here, which can be divided into two categories: jugglers and rappers. Acrobatics includes acrobatics and martial arts, and rap includes drama, quyi and other projects. The most famous is the "Eight Monsters of Tianqiao", which is named because of its stunts and weird words and deeds. "Eight eccentrics" have their own meanings in different periods. In chronological order, there were eight people in the early period, namely, poor and fearless, high vinegar drowning, pockmarked Han, bald pot, lame Tian, ugly Sun, and often infatuated, who lived in Xianfeng, Tongzhi and Guangxu periods of Qing Dynasty. In the middle stage, there were eight people, namely, the old man who beat toad, Lao Feitian, Hua Xiong, the golden bell ringer, the silly king, the hundred birds Zhang, the true monk and Cheng Fool, who were active in the early years of the Republic of China. In the later period, there were eight people, including Xiaoyun, Dajinya, Jiao Dehai, Huang, Shen San, Cui Baer, Cao Mazi and Saihuo Donkey, who were active in 1930s and 1940s.

Because the imperial court didn't collect taxes from them, which promoted the development of business and entertainment in this area, artists from all walks of life set up here.

During Guangxu period (1875- 1908), the Han Jing Railway was completed, the station was located outside Yongdingmen, and merchants had to cross the overpass. Since then, the overpass has become more prosperous, opening up markets, triangle markets, west markets, east markets, Xiannong markets, south markets and Huiyuan shopping malls.

In 1930s, an article entitled "Investigation of Overpass" (see1Beiping Daily on February 4, 930) introduced the general situation of overpass at that time: "It covers an area of 20 mu. * * * There are 773 shops and vendors in all walks of life, of which 334 are officially licensed, including 9 theaters and 7 libraries. 439 booths were temporarily set up and are being counted ... 62 entertainment acrobatic booths. "
