BEIJING

As the capital of China, Beijing is a world-renowned historical and cultural city that combines the profound heritage of a millennium-old imperial capital with the vitality of an international metropolis. It is located in the northern part of the North China Plain, adjacent to Tianjin and Hebei Province. Beijing has a warm-temperate, semi-humid to semi-arid monsoon climate. Summers here are hot and rainy, winters are cold and dry, while spring and autumn are cool and pleasant – making these two seasons the most ideal time for travel. As China's center of politics, culture and international exchanges, Beijing is also a core city for high-tech industries and finance, occupying an irreplaceable position in both economic and cultural fields.

In terms of history and architecture, Beijing can be regarded as a "living museum":
-The Palace Museum, the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties, is the world's largest wooden architectural complex and houses 186,000 precious cultural relics.
-The Mutianyu Section of the Great Wall is famous for its lush vegetation and moderate slopes, bearing witness to the grandeur of the military defense projects of the Ming Dynasty.
-The Temple of Heaven, a sacred place for imperial sacrifices to heaven during the Ming and Qing dynasties, perfectly embodies the ancient philosophy of "harmony between man and nature".
Beijing's modern architecture is also thriving. Other must-visit attractions include the Summer Palace and Nanluoguxiang. Additionally, local culinary delights such as Peking duck, fried sauce noodles and douzhi (fermented mung bean milk) allow tourists to deeply experience the city's food culture.
