Fengtai District

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fengtai District/Precinct (Simplified Chinese: 丰台区, Hanyu Pinyin: Fēngtái Qū) is a precinct of the municipality of Beijing. It lies to the southwest of the greater urban area of the city.

It is 306 square kilometres in area, making it the third-largest precinct in the greater urban part of Beijing, and is home to 1.36 million inhabitants. This precinct is newly urbanized in comparison to those precincts in the old city, and until mid-1980's, it was still a mostly rural area: pig pens and goat pens were common, and major parts of the precinct had no electricity. It was only during the recent rapid economic development that the precinct was urbanized. Its postal code is 100071.

In Qing Dynasty times, Fengtai was where the Imperial Manchu Army had its camps, trained, and held parades on festive occasions.

The southwestern stretches of the 3rd Ring Road, 4th Ring Road and 5th Ring Road all run through the area, as well as the Jingshi Expressway (Jingzhu Expressway).
