Beijing is China's second largest city, after Shanghai.Beijing is a major transportation hub, with dozens of railways, roads and motorways passing through the city. It is also the focal point of many international flights to China.

Few cities in the world besides Beijing have served as the political and cultural centre of an area as immense as China for so long. The Encyclop?dia Britannica describes it as, "One of the world's great cities," and declares that the city has been an integral part of China’s history for centuries, and there is scarcely a major building of any age in Beijing that doesn't have at least some national historical significance.
