Heure Actuelle à Beijing, Chine — CST.

Beijing, previously romanized as Peking, is the capital city of China. With more than 22 million residents, it is the world's most populous national capital city, as well as China's second-largest city by urban area, after Shanghai. It is located in Northern China, and is governed as a municipality under the direct administration of the State Council with 16 urban districts. Beijing is mostly surrounded by Hebei Province and neighbors Tianjin to the southeast; together, the three divisions form the Jing-Jin-Ji cluster.

Distance-wise, Beijing is closest to Tokyo (~2,090 km), Singapore (~4,472 km), Dubai (~5,841 km); São Paulo is the far end at roughly 17,598 km. That ordering matters more than the timezone label for travel planning.

Beijing sits inside Chine — the Eastern Asia subregion, capital Beijing, languages Chinese, currency CNY (¥).
