  Xi himself visited Anxin county in late February, which only became public when China announced plans for Xiongan on April 1.

  The airport is also intended as a gift for the relatively underdeveloped region south of the capital where it is located (67km from Capital airport in the northeast). It is roughly equidistant between the centre of Beijing and a new city, Xiongan, that is being built in Hebei province, south of Daxing, to relieve population pressure on the capital (Xiongan is a project cherished by China’s leader, Xi Jinping, as is the airport).

  THE KEY TEST MAY COME in Xiongan, a 680-square-mile stretch of swampy land, including a heavily polluted lake, about 65 miles southwest of Beijing. In April 2017 President Xi Jinping announced, again to general surprise, that he wanted to build a new city there.[...]Xi has declared Xiongan a project for the millennium. A video in the visitors center shows a low-rise, small-block, and extremely green city.

• 2020 June 3, Yujie Wang et al., “Climate-related risks in the construction of Xiongan New Area, China”, in Theoretical and Applied Climatology‎^[4], volume 141, →DOI, →ISSN, →OCLC:

  A warming and drying trend was seen in Xiongan New Area during 1961–2018, as evidenced by the increase in the number of high-temperature days and the maximum rainfall intensity per hour, a decrease in surface water resources and groundwater levels, a reduction in wind speeds, and weakening of the self-purification capacity of the atmosphere. It is estimated that the areas at high risk of floods and heats will increase by 15.7 and 15.6% in around 2035 relative to 1986–2005, respectively. Although the runoff in the Daqing River Basin will increase, the construction of Xiongan New Area means that the imbalance between the supply and demand of water resources will remain. Climate change adaptation measures should therefore be improved in the planning and construction of Xiongan New Area.
