Beijing
The capital of the People’s Republic of China, Beijing is the nation’s political, economic, cultural and educational center. Thanks to its geographical location, situated in northern China, close to the port of Tianjin and partially surrounded by Hebei province, the metropolis is the main transportation hub and port of entry, and serves as an important center for international trade and communications.
Beijing’s history dates back to three millennia: for centuriesit has been the heart and soul of politics and society, which makes it an attractive destination for travellers willing to explore its rich and opulent cultural heritage. At the same time, thanks to China’s impressive economic and social transformation, the capital, home to 21 million people, has become one of the most populous cities in the world and a frenetic and vibrant city buzzing with energy.
