The Chinese capital Beijing has a population of around 35 million and is considered one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world today. Since the 2008 Olympics at the latest, Beijing has moved into the general world consciousness as a modern metropolis. In addition to direct encounters with Chinese students, we will touch on China's 3,000-year-old history by visiting the city's historical sites.
