	Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Tiananmen Square protests in 1989 were in large measure sparked by the death of former Secretary General Hu Yaobang.
		Generally, the demonstration at Tiananmen Square was well-ordered, with daily marches of students from various Beijing area colleges displaying their solidarity with the boycott of college classes and with the developing demands of the protest.
		Tiananmen Square is tightly patrolled on the anniversary of June 4 to prevent any commemoration.

		Tiananmen Square (Simplified Chinese: 天安门广场, Traditional Chinese: 天安門廣場; pinyin: Tiān'ānmén Guǎngchǎng) is the large plaza near the center of Beijing, China, named after the Tiananmen (literally, Gate of Heavenly Peace) which sits to its north, separating it from the Forbidden City.
		The square is 880 metres south to north and 500 metres east to west, a total area of 440,000 square meters, which makes it the largest open-urban square in the world – considerably larger than Naghsh-i Jahan Square in Isfahan, Iran, its closest competitor.
		Tiananmen Square has been the site of a number of political events such as the proclamation of the People's Republic of China by Mao Zedong in October 1, 1949 and for mass rallies during the Cultural Revolution.
