Beijing - China's main city, if you start your trip to China, then, in my opinion, be sure to start from the Chinese capital. In this city you can enjoy the various sights, famous all over the world: in the center of Beijing, is the largest square in the world, the size of 44 hectares and capacity of 1 million people - Tiananmen Square, it is traditionally considered the symbolic heart of the Chinese nation, and is named after the gate Tiananmen located to the north of the area, they are also separated it from the Forbidden City.
