Detailed explanation-1: -Beijing is the capital of the People’s Republic of China and one of the most populous cities in the world. The metropolis, located in north China, is governed as one of the four municipality directly under the central government. The city is located 39.56 degrees north latitude and 116.2 degrees east longitude.
Detailed explanation-2: -As we all know, Beijing is the capital of the People’s Republic of China. Beijing has almost continually been the capital for the last 700 years. It was an imperial capital during six Chinese dynasties. As China’s second-biggest city (after Shanghai), Beijing is the political, cultural, and educational center of China.
Detailed explanation-3: -The northern border of ancient China ran close to the present city of Beijing, and northern nomadic tribes frequently broke in from across the border. Thus, the area that was to become Beijing emerged as an important strategic and a local political centre.
Detailed explanation-4: -Language reform in the 1950s established an official Romanized spelling system for use in transcribing Chinese words in other languages. In the new (and current) system the old CHI and KI were replaced with JI, and, Běijīng was spelled “Beijing, ‘’ and not “Peking” any more.
