Beijing — 21.8 Million

· Area: 16,410 km² (1,600 sq mi)
· 2024 GDP: 4.98 trillion yuan (692 billion USD)
Beijing is large primarily because it is China's capital. It is actually China's largest city by area, as Shanghai's urban population is more concentrated.
It is a political, educational, and cultural center, with light industries (science, technology, and research) dominating over mass manufacturing.
It is a must-visit city for first-timers. You can directly experience China's history and culture through its most famous landmarks — the Great Wall and the Forbidden City.
