Why Beijing as the capital?
The original name of Beijing was Beiping, and it was changed to Beijing in September of 1949. Beijing for short is an ancient civilization with a long history. As early as 3000 years ago, during the Zhou Dynasty, the State of Yan took Beijing as its capital and called it Ji. Later, Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing all designated it as the national capital. This famous historical and cultural city, Xi, Luoyang, Kaifeng, Nanjing and Hangzhou are also called the six ancient capitals of China.
This is the historical background. After careful consideration from the political and international background, I finally chose Beijing.
Another thing to say is that the feng shui in Beijing is really good, and there are basically no major natural disasters. This is very important. Such as floods, typhoons, major earthquakes, mudslides and so on.
