Beijing is a metropolis in Northern China, and the capital of China. Beijing is the nation's political, economic, cultural, international trade and communication center.

Beijing is a major transportation hub, with dozens of railways, roads and motorways passing through the city. It is also the destination of many international flights arriving in China.

Beijing is renowned for its opulent palaces, temples, and huge stone walls and gates. There is scarcely a major building in Beijing that does not have at least some historical significance.

Since the city hosted the 2008 Olympic Games, it has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, with hundreds of millions of visitors from home and abroad each year.
