Beijing is an ancient city with a long history. Back in 3000 years ago in Zhou dynasty, Beijing, which was called Ji at the moment, had been named capital of Yan. Thereafter, Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasty all made Beijing their capital. Therefore, Beijing was famous for "Capital of a thousand years".

　　The long history leaves Beijing precious cultural treasure. Winding for several kilometers in Beijing area, the Great Wall is the only man-made structure that could been seen in the space. The Summer Palace is a classic composition of ancient royal gardens, and the Forbidden City is the largest royal palaces in the world. Tiantan is where the emperor used to fete their ancestors, and also the soul of Chinese ancient constructions. The four sites above has been confirmed world cultural heritage by UNESCO. However, the best representatives for Beijing are the vanishing Hutongs and square courtyards. Through hundreds of years, they have become symbol of Beijing's life. Tian'anmen square being still brilliant today with cloverleaf junctions and skyscrapers everywhere, the old-timey scene and modern culture are combined to present a brand new visage of Beijing.

　　As Beijing has been confirmed home city of Olympics 2008, the spirit of "green Olympics, scientific Olympics and humanized Olympic" will surely bring more and more changes to Beijing, promote the development of sports and Olympics in China as well as in the world, and strengthen the friendly communications between Chinese and foreign people.

　　北京是一個有著悠久歷史的古城。早在3000年前的周朝,北京,這叫霽,被命名為首都燕。此后,遼、金、元、明、清都是北京首都。因此,北京著名的一千年的“資本”。

　　悠久的歷史使北京寶貴的文化瑰寶。繞組在北京地區(qū)幾公里,長城是唯一的人造結(jié)構(gòu),可以在空間。頤和園是古代皇家園林的經(jīng)典組合,和故宮是世界上最大的皇家宮殿。天壇是皇帝用來祭祀他們的祖先的地方,也是中國古代建筑的靈魂。上面的四個網(wǎng)站已經(jīng)確認(rèn)被聯(lián)合國教科文組織世界文化遺產(chǎn)。然而,北京最好的代表是消失的胡同和廣場庭院。數(shù)百年來,他們已經(jīng)成為北京的生活的象征。天安門廣場到處都在今天依然燦爛的蝶式路口和摩天大樓的,古色古香的場景和現(xiàn)代文化相結(jié)合,提出一個全新的北京的面貌。

　　隨著北京2008年奧運(yùn)會已被證實的家鄉(xiāng),精神的“綠色奧運(yùn)、科技奧運(yùn)和人性化的奧林匹克”必將給北京帶來越來越多的變化,促進(jìn)體育和奧運(yùn)會在中國的發(fā)展以及世界上,加強(qiáng)中外人民之間的友好交流。
