Location. Located one kilometer from Tiananmen Square, the world’s largest public square, in Beijing, China, the Beijing Hwa Apartment Hotel lies in the commercial center of the city, 33 kilometers from Beijing Capital Airport. Tiananmen Square, site of the infamous 1989 massacre of 2,000 student demonstrators by Chinese troops, sits adjacent to the Forbidden City, a walled area that houses the palaces of 24 emperors in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The space used to be closed to the public, but now serves as a tourist-packed museum. Wangfujing Avenue, China’s most famous commercial street since 1949, stretches out two kilometers from the hotel.
