Many parts of China have experienced extreme weather this summer. Record heatwaves hit the country's eastern region earlier this month while floods swept the country's southwest.
Last week, some 20,000 people were evacuated from their homes in Baoding city in Hebei, where a county was reportedly dumped nearly a year's worth of in a single day.
Authorities have pledged to spend 50 million yuan ($7m; £5.2m) to repair roads and buildings damaged by heavy rains in northern China.
They have also dispatched disaster relief supplies to Shaanxi and Hebei, provinces near Beijing that have also been hit by the downpours.
China's leader Xi Jinping is calling for an "all-out" search and rescue for those missing in the floods.
"No effort should be spared to search for and rescue those missing or trapped, to transfer and resettle residents in affected areas, and to reduce casualties to the greatest extent possible," the president said on Monday.
As China goes into peak flood season, Xi also urged local authorities to implement control measures and prepare for "worst-case and extreme scenarios".
Here's a look at what's been happening in flood-hit Beijing and other cities in northern China. Over 80,000 people have been evacuated in the capital alone, according to state media.
