The birthplace of the Chinese Civilization, Beijing also known as Peking, is the political, educational and cultural nucleus of People’s Republic of China. The second largest city of the most populous country in the world, Beijing for nearly 800 years, was the capital of Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. The city is the heart for China’s transportation, scientific and technological development, education and communication. Beijing is reckoned as the modern international conurbation of China with immense vigour and vivacity.
Reputed for being flat as a pancake, with the great historical and time-honoured legacy, Beijing is truly the antediluvian citadel of China. In short, a metropolis fused with tradition and contemporary life.

Sightsee in Beijing:
By Subway-
Beijing subways are best ways to swiftly travel around the city. The networks have expanded rapidly in recent years especially since Beijing Olympics. During rush hour trains can be extremely crowded and this subway network shuts down too early.
By Bus-
Bus system is economic, convenient and takes you all around the city. If you have no knowledge of Chinese or Mandarin, then this system is a bit inconvenient for you as the bus staffs only speaks these two languages properly and very little English. Bus stop signs are also completely in Chinese.
By Bicycle-
China earlier was known as the nation of bicycles. Beijing is flat land and all major streets have great bike lanes. Bicycling if often faster than travelling in cars or buses because, of the traffic congestion in the streets.
