A magnitude-4.3 earthquake hit Yongqing County, Langfang City in north China's Hebei Province, just south of Beijing, on Monday evening.

According to China Earthquake Networks Center, the quake struck at 6:31 p.m. Beijing time. There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage.

Liang Yongjin, a staffer at a hotel in Yongqing, said he felt nothing but some slight shakes when the quake hit.

"Everything is fine in the hotel. The building and the furniture were undamaged. There was no visible panic among the customers," Liang said.

Tremors were felt in Beijing.

"After I felt some slight shakes, I immediately ran out of the building," said a man surnamed Chen who lives in a residential area in western Beijing.

Zhang Yuan, an office worker in eastern Beijing, said when the quake struck, a lamp overhead swung slightly for some time.
