-- The Beijing-Xiong'an intercity railway opened to traffic on Sunday, connecting the Chinese capital with the Xiong'an New Area, the country's "city of the future."
-- Travel time from Beijing West Railway Station to the Xiong'an New Area was cut from one and a half hours to about 50 minutes. It takes only 19 minutes to travel from Beijing Daxing International Airport to Xiong'an.
-- Xiong'an will by 2035 be developed into a high-level modern city that is green, intelligent and livable, with relatively strong competitiveness and harmonious human-environment interaction.
