During Zardari's stay here, Chinese President Hu Jintao will hold talks with him. Premier Wen Jiabao and top political advisor Jia Qinglin will also meet with him.
The leaders will exchange views on enhancing bilateral friendship and promoting reciprocal cooperation, and discuss international and regional issues of common concern, according to the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
Zardari will leave Beijing for Shanghai later this week, and visit the Pakistani National Pavilion at the Shanghai World Expo.
This is Zardari's fifth visit to China since he became president of Pakistan.
