PRC re-renamed Beiping back to Beijing and relocated the capital there. The reason was probably symbolic as they abolished Qing imperial survivors' resdidual rights and privileges and retook Forbidden City as national monument. Strategically also not threatening, since the Mongolia and Manchuria buffers have been settled.
more likely it easier for the CCP leadership to haul ass toward the russian border in case KMT/US recross the taiwan straits.
