About an hour's drive from Beijing, a futuristic city is rising on the North China Plain -- the Xiong'an New Area.  The area aims to relieve Beijing of non-essential functions related to its status as the nation's capital while also advancing the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.  Official data reveals a more detailed picture in Xiong'an: the developed area spans around 215 square kilometers with more than 5,300 buildings shaping the urban skyline, housing 1.41 million residents and 669 high-tech enterprises.
