Few cities on earth are changing as fast as Beijing, capital city of the People's Republic of China (PRC). Hosting the Olympic Games represented the ultimate statement of China's emergence as a global superpower. Beijing's high-speed physical makeover moves hand-in-hand with a firmly retained grip on China's rich cultural heritage and strict communist social order. Its soaring modern architecture and vast international hotels and grandiose socialist municipal buildings are connected by an often confusing system of broad boulevards and ring roads around the city. Beyond the modernity, Beijing offers a bountiful hotpot of tourism attractions, including the fast-disappearing hutong, parks, architectural and cultural treasures and exquisite temples - and, of course, the Great Wall of China. Beijing became China's capital in 1421 and until the collapse of the imperial regime in 1911. There's only one place to begin exploring the city - Tiananmen Square, where Mao Zedong declared the foundation of the People's Republic. Though more closely identified with the suppression of the student-led pro-democracy protests of 1989, the world's largest public square is an impressive tourism centrepiece. Beijing Hotels, To stand and see the imposing majesty of the Forbidden City to the north and the vast portrait of Mao Zedong on the Tiananmen Gate itself is to appreciate the indubitable centrality of the capital to all aspects of the Chinese psyche and Chairman Mao's mausoleum. Beijing is at its best in late spring and, particularly, autumn when crisp, sunny days are accompanied by tree leaves turning glorious shades of red and gold. The searing heat of summer and the biting winds in winter can be extreme. Beijing's airport is located 28km northeast of the city centre. The main international terminal hosts 66 local and domestic airlines offering more than 5,000 scheduled flights linking Beijing with 88 Chinese and 69 international cities. As part of Beijing's Olympic overhaul, Lord Norman Foster's glittering new terminal three opened in 2008. Claiming to be ‘the world's largest and most advanced airport building,' it will accommodate 43 million passengers per year, rising to 53 million by 2015.
