Area of Tiananmen Square
Tiananmen Square is the largest downtown square in the world. It covers an area of 44 hectares, big enough to hold one million people. From the red wall of the Tian'anmen Rostrum in the north to the south gate, it measures some 880 meters, and from the Museum of Chinese Revolution and Chinese History in the east to the Great Hall of the People in the west, it is about 500 meters.

Name source
Tian'anmen square is named after its magnificent Tian’anmen Rostrum (Gate of Heavenly Peace), which was the first gate of the Imperial City.
