{{short description|subdistrict of Chaoyang District, Beijing}}

Wangjing ({{zh|c=街道 |p=Wàngjīng Jiēdào}}) is a major residential and technological area and subdistrict of Chaoyang District, in the northeast of Beijing.

Koreatown

Expansive in dimensions, Wangjing is a very important residential zone and has a large number of high-rise apartments built from the mid-1990s onwards. Due to the large number of South Korean residents, Wangjing has also become known as Beijing's Koreatown. More than 70,000 South Koreans were living in the neighborhood in 2007.[1]

Demographics

{{see also|Korean people in Beijing}}

As of 2010, many South Koreans moving to Beijing had settled in Wangjing. Most South Korean businesspeople and their families in Beijing live in Wangjing. Hyejin Kim, author of International Ethnic Networks and Intra-Ethnic Conflict: Koreans in China, wrote that the growth of Wangjing has eclipsed Wudaokou in Haidian District as a Korean area.[2]

Technology Center

Wangjing houses many technology companies, both small startup companies, as well as national, and large international corporations. Examples include:

  • Wangjing Science and Technology Park,[3] which houses mainly technology startup companies.
  • A major office of China Telecom.
  • The Chinese headquarters of Siemens Ltd. China
  • Alibaba Group Beijing
  • The Chinese headquarters of Caterpillar Inc.
  • The Chinese headquarters of Daimler Crysler
  • Many foreign telecommunication R&D offices for companies such as Panasonic, Ericsson, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Nortel, Alcatel and Lucent.

Education

There are several schools in Wangjing:

  • China Central Academy of Fine Arts
  • Beijing No.80 High School (the only Beacon high school located in Chaoyang District)
  • Korean International School in Beijing (KISB)[4]
