Beijing|Beijing's Chongwen District (Simplified Chinese: 崇文区; Hanyu Pinyin: Ch?ngw?n Qū) is located southeast relative to city center (Tiananmen), and is situated between Yongdingmen and Qianmen. It spans an area of 16.46 square kilometers and its population, at present, has reached over 430,000 individuals. Although not outlying, Chongwen District is among one of Beijing's more compact districts, with per capita area being considerably less than others. Its rather meagre size makes it the smallest of the four districts which used to comprise the old city. Chongwen District is renowned for The Temple of Heaven and Longtan Park, as well as housing both Quanjude and Bianyifang, the two original (and still most authentic) Peking Roast Duck restaurants.
The Beijing Subway station Chongwenmen is located in this district.
Its postcode is 100061.
