Pékin · 北京

Pékin ou Beijing (en chinois : 北京 ; pinyin : běijīng Écouter la prononciation en mandarin, littéralement « capitale du nord ») est la capitale de la République populaire de Chine. Située dans le nord du pays, la municipalité de Pékin (北京市, abrégé en 京), d'une superficie de 16 800 km2, borde la province du Hebei ainsi que la municipalité de Tianjin. Pékin est considérée comme le centre politique et culturel de la Chine, tandis que Hong Kong et Shanghai dominent au niveau économique.
D'abord ville périphérique de l'empire chinois sous les Han et les Tang, elle prend de l'importance lorsque les Jurchen, qui fondent la dynastie Jin, la choisissent comme leur capitale principale en 1153. Le prince mongol Kublai Khan en fait de même sous le nom de Dadu (« grande capitale »), enfin les Ming y transfèrent leur administration en 1421, finalisant le choix de Pékin comme capitale de la Chine. Située à proximité de la Grande Muraille, Pékin abrite des monuments célèbres comme la Cité interdite et le Temple du ciel, qui sont inscrits au patrimoine mondial. De nombreuses réalisations architecturales et structurelles ont modifié la ville à l'occasion des Jeux olympiques dont elle a été l'hôte en 2008.
Avec 17 millions d'habitants, Pékin est la deuxième ville la plus peuplée de Chine après Shanghai. La zone urbaine compte quant à elle 13 millions d'habitants. Le parler pékinois forme la base du mandarin standard. D'un point de vue économique, Pékin est la troisième ville de Chine par le PIB total derrière Shanghai et Hong Kong. Elle connaît une croissance économique très rapide, nettement plus de 10 % par an dans les années 2000. Un nouveau Central business district (CBD) est en construction.
