                Beijing is a global city 



             As a megacity, Beijing is the second largest Chinese city by urban population after Shanghai. [16] The majority of China's largest state-owned corporations have their headquarters there, along with the largest concentration of Fortune Global 500 companies and the four largest financial institutions in the world by total assets. 

           The Beijing Capital International Airport has been the second busiest in the world by passenger traffic (Asia's busiest) since 2010,[19] and, as of 2016, the city's subway network is the busiest and longest in the world. The biggest single-structure airport terminal in the world is found at Beijing Daxing International Airport, a second international airport in Beijing. 

        Beijing, one of the world's oldest cities with a rich history spanning more than three millennia, combines both traditional and modern style architecture. Beijing, the final of China's Four Great Ancient Cities, has served as the nation's political hub for the majority of the last eight centuries[22] and, for much of the second millennium CE, was the world's most populous city. [23] Beijing was strategically developed to be the residence of the emperor and was therefore the ideal location for the imperial capital. Mountains surrounded the inland city on three sides, in addition to the old inner and outer city walls. The city is famed for its sumptuous palaces, temples, parks, gardens, tombs, walls 

          One of the most popular tourist destinations in the world is Beijing. After Shanghai, Beijing was the world's second-highest earning tourist destination in 2018. [25] Seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, Summer Palace, Ming Tombs, Zhoukoudian, and portions of the Great Wall and the Grand Canal, are located in Beijing. Beijing is also home to numerous national monuments and museums. [26] Siheyuans, the city's distinctive housing design, and hutongs, the winding lanes that connect siheyuans, are popular tourist destinations in urban Beijing. 

          The Zhongguancun district of Beijing is a global innovation hub for science, technology, and business. Since 2016, Beijing has been ranked as the city with the highest output of scientific research by the Nature Index[31][32]. The city has played host to numerous national and international sporting events, with the 2008 Summer Olympics and Summer Paralympics Games being the most notable. Beijing made history by being the first city to ever hold the Summer and Winter Olympics, as well as the Summer and Winter Paralympics, in 2022.

          Danau Toba, a popular Indonesian tourist destination          An incredible natural wonder of the globe is Lake Toba. An island about the size of Singapore sits in the middle of this gigantic crater lake. Lake Toba resembles an ocean more than a lake because of its 1,145 square kilometers and 450 meters in depth. One of the world's deepest lakes, this one is also the largest lake in Southeast Asia.          Toba is a place to unwind, take in the stunning surroundings, and take it all in. Your problems will go as you sit and take in the scene of the picturesque mountains contrasted with the refreshingly clear lake. The lake's elevation of 900 meters above sea level results in a milder temperature that provides a welcome respite from the heat, humidity, and pollution of the city.      Medan is a global entry point for Air.

            The Pyramid in Egypt          Ancient conquerors and travelers were enthralled by the Egyptian pyramids, and today's tourists, mathematicians, and archeologists who visit, investigate, measure, and describe them are still in awe of them. Mastabas, or bench-shaped mounds, were used as the early Egyptian monarchs' tombs. Imhotep, King Djoser's architect, constructed the first pyramid around 2780 BCE by stacking six mastababas, each smaller than the one below, to create a pyramid that rose in steps. This Step Pyramid is located at Sakkara, close to Memphis, on the western bank of the Nile River. It has a number of rooms and tunnels, including the king's burial chamber, just like later pyramids.         Under the rule of King Snefru, the Fourth Dynasty's founder, the Step Pyramid was converted into a real, smooth-sided pyramid (2680–2560 BCE). A step pyramid was constructed at Medum, then it was...
