Live: Take a stroll along the legendary Beijing Central Axis

Experience the Beijing Central Axis, carefully preserved as the backbone of the ancient city. Stretching 7.8 kilometers from Yongding Gate in the south to the Drum and Bell Towers in the north, it features iconic landmarks ranging from Zhengyang Gate and Tian'anmen Square to the Forbidden City and Jingshan Park.

On August 7, 2022, China's National Administration of Cultural Heritage announced that China would apply to have the Beijing Central Axis recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2024. It was included on UNESCO's World Heritage List on Saturday during the 46th session of the World Heritage Committee in New Delhi, India.

The historic route holds profound cultural significance. Join CGTN's Bi Ran at Beijing Drum Tower to uncover its unique charms and rich history.
