Beijing’s Historic Central Axis: A UNESCO World Heritage Site
We are thrilled that the Beijing’s Historic Central Axis, an architectural marvel that runs through the core of the Chinese capital, has been granted World Heritage status by UNESCO.
In late March, we welcomed our longtime friends from Wah Yan College Hong Kong through TBC’s ChinaContact program. Their first visit was to their sister school, Beijing No. 11 School, where they engaged in vibrant exchanges, sharing educational insights and cultural experiences with each other.
Following this, they explored the TBC library, which boasts an extensive collection of over 27,000 volumes of English-language sinological books. These books span diverse fields such as art, biography, ethnology, history, and language, sparking interest among the students.
In addition to academic exchanges on campus, they also toured several historical landmarks in Beijing, including the Forbidden City, the Ancient Observatory, and the Mutianyu Great Wall.
This cultural journey not only allowed them to experience the unique charm of Beijing’s regional culture but also enriched their academic and humanistic outlooks, enhancing their appreciation of traditional Chinese culture and history.

The Beijing Center was honored to host ESAN University Peru MBA students for a four-day visit where they immerse themselves in Chinese culture, history, and business practices.
