On the west side of Tiananmen Square, shown here behind the Monument to the People's Heroes, is the Great Hall of the People (also called the 10,000 People Hall because the main auditorium seats 10,000 people). The Great Hall of the People is China's legislative center, the home of the National People's Congress. In addition to the main auditorium, it also contains a large reception room for each of China's 32 provinces.
