Four years on: Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei coordinated development

2. Building of Beijing's subsidiary administrative center

The construction of Beijing's subsidiary administrative center, in the eastern suburb district Tongzhou, was approved by the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on May 27, 2016.

The construction of the subsidiary center is aimed at easing some of the capital's "big city diseases", and propelling the collaborative development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.

Starting from the end of 2017, the capital's municipal administrative organizations and institutions began moving to Tongzhou.
