Archdiocese of Beijing

The Archdiocese of Beijing () is a Metropolitan Latin archdiocese in the People's Republic of China.

Cathedral

Its cathedral was the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception (South Church), located in the city of Beijing (Peking), which replaced the former cathedral, now the Holy Saviour Church (North Church), also in Beijing. The North Church was made into the archdiocese's cathedral again following the completion of renovations in 2018.

Boundaries

The boundaries that the Chinese government across China has set for dioceses is often different from the historical boundaries for those dioceses previously approved by the Vatican. The current boundaries of the Archdiocese of Beijing according to the boundaries set by the Chinese government include all territory within the present boundaries of the provincial-level city of Beijing. The historic boundaries, however, include significant parts of neighbouring Hebei. (see also: modern history of Xianxian diocese)
