The Beijing Municipality is flat and has a very orderly design - north, south, east and west circumnavigated by six concentric ring roads. The Beijing seasons are clearly marked by changes in weather and temperatures, and surprising splashes of colors. Beijing today is a city of vast contrasts - the new intermingles with the old, and the whole city is developing rapidly. You will find nightlife to suit all tastes and a huge expat scene - this is an exciting city in which to live.
