Beijing, China














I was traveled to China with a big group of people, and ours first destination was Beijing, the capital of China.

When I arrived to the airport and I got out to the plane I would like to be die. The humidity was the higher that I´ve never feel in my life. I was really hot.

There are a lot incredible places to visit in Beijing. The Forbidden City which was constructed soon after that (1406-1420), followed by the Temple of Heaven (1420), and numerous other construction projects. Is a entirely city fortified, where lived the imperator and where only could in the people who worked for him.













Beijing is China's second largest city, after Shanghai. It 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. Beijing is recognized as the political, educational, and cultural center of the People's Republic of China, while Shanghai and Hong Kong predominate in economic fields.














About the pollution, Beijing is one of the most polluted city in the world with more than 13 million of people leaving in the town.

Three styles of architecture predominate in urban Beijing. First, the traditional architecture of imperial China, the Forbidden City, and the Temple of Heaven. Next there is what is sometimes referred to as the "Sino-Sov" style, built between the 1950s and the 1970s. Finally, there are much more modern architectural forms.
