The capital of China was moved to Peking, later renamed Beijing, when Kublai Khan finished conquering China. He moved his capital (of the entire Mongol [or Khanbalik] Empire as well as China) there, and it is the capital of China still. For more details, I've cited the answer to the question When did Beijing become the capital of China? The following answer was provided by ID1147162205, and edited by ID1634004284. The city which was earlier known as Peking and Peiping, was founded around 700 B.C. Kublai Khan made it the capital of his Khanbalik Empire, from 1264 to 1267. The Ming emperors made it their capital in 1421 and it remained China's capital till 1912 when the Manchu Empire fell and SunYat Sen turned China into a republic. In 1949, the Communists captured the city and made it their capital, which it has remained to this day.
