Great Hall of the People

Sitting to the west of Tiananmen Square in Beijing, the Great Hall of the People is a prominent Stalinist structure completed in September 1959 after just 10 months of construction. This vast building serves as the venue for the National People’s Congress and hosts various administrative, social, and ceremonial events. Inside, visitors can explore the impressive 10,000-seat auditorium, a testament to the grand scale and purpose of this significant landmark.
