Beijing, capital of China at the beginning of last century. A street scene with the famous gate Zhengyangmen. Qianmen (or front gate) is the informal name.
The gate is located south of Tiananmen Square and once guarded the southern entrance to the inner city. Although many of Beijing's city walls were demolished, Zhengyangmen remains an important geographical feature of the city. The central north-south axis of the city runs through the main gate of Zhengyangmen. It used to be called Lizhengmen, which means "beautiful portal".
