The WWII Victory Military Parade in Beijing is held in the month of September. This grand parade is organized to commemorate the victory of the Chinese people in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the end of World War II. The parade typically takes place on September 3rd, which is officially designated as the Victory Day of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.
During this period, a number of restrictions and control measures are implemented in Beijing to ensure the smooth organization of the parade and to maintain public order and safety. Travelers and residents should take note of the following measures and prepare accordingly.
As part of the preparations for the parade and national holiday, several special arrangements are enforced to manage traffic and public access.
Visitors and residents should plan their transportation, sightseeing, and accommodation arrangements carefully during this period. Many roads and public areas in central Beijing will be closed or restricted for security reasons, and access to landmarks like Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City will be limited. Travelers are advised to check local announcements, adjust their itineraries in advance, and allow extra travel time to avoid disruptions.

Proper planning and awareness of these regulations can help ensure a smoother travel experience.
