La Plaza de Tian'anmen [...] en Pekín fue construida e ideada dentro del plan urbanístico de la capital de China [...] convirtiéndose en símbolo de la nueva China. Con su construcción se pretendió crear una gran explanada en la que se pudieran desarrollar masivos actos de adhesión política, cuya tradición era inexistente en China, al estilo de los que se realizaban en la Plaza Roja de Moscú en la Unión Soviética. 2, record 1, Spanish, - Tiananmen

Tiananmen: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, recomienda la grafía "Tiananmen" para el nombre de la plaza de Pekín. La forma original en el sistema pinyin para la escritura del mandarín contiene un apóstrofo y se puede considerar válido mantenerlo, pero por simplicidad gráfica es mejor suprimirlo, al igual que se eliminan normalmente los acentos y otros diacríticos de las vocales. 1, record 1, Spanish, - Tiananmen
