Which province did Beijing originally belong to?

Beijing has never belonged to any province in history and has always existed in a unique form of administrative division.

Historically, since Hebei was established as a province, Beijing has never been managed by anyone. The establishment of Hebei Province can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty, when Beijing was a special region. Later, Judy moved the capital here (Hebei was called Zhili in Ming and Qing Dynasties) and has been directly under the central government ever since.

During the Republic of China, it was also a special city. In the Yuan Dynasty, Beijing was also the capital, but Hebei was not established. At that time, the whole of Hebei was directly under the central government. At other times, Beijing existed in the form of a country or a capital.

Extended data:

Beijing, referred to as "Beijing" for short, is the provincial administrative region, capital and municipality directly under the Central Government of People's Republic of China (PRC), and is the political and cultural center of the whole country. Beijing was once the capital of six dynasties in history. During the two thousand years since the Yan State, many palace buildings have been built, making Beijing the city with the largest number of royal palaces, gardens, temples and mausoleums in China.

Beijing is one of the four municipalities directly under the Central Government of China and does not belong to any province. Shanghai, Tianjin and Chongqing are also municipalities directly under the central government. The municipalities directly under the Central Government of China, like provinces, autonomous regions and special administrative regions, are the highest administrative units, so their administrative status is the same as that of provinces, and they are all provincial administrative units directly under the Central Government.
