Beijing, the capital of the People's Republic of China, is not only the political center of the country, but also the cultural, scientific, educational center and transportation hub. Beijing is located on the northern edge of the North China Plain, surrounded by mountains on the west, north and east, and plains in the southeast.

It has a temperate continental climate with four distinct seasons, with short springs, rainy and humid summers, long and cold winters, and autumn being the most pleasant season.

As early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, a city has been established here, called "thistle". During the Warring States period, it became the capital of the Yan Kingdom. For more than 1,000 years, Jicheng has been a military center and center in northern China.
