In everyday conversation, 京剧 (jīngjù) is used to refer to Beijing Opera, Peking Opera. It is a form of traditional Chinese theatre that combines music, vocal performance, mime, dance, and acrobatics. It is often used to contrast with other forms of Chinese theatre, such as 戏曲 (xìqǔ) or Chinese opera.

Yes, there are several cultural references associated with 京剧 (jīngjù).
The most obvious reference is to the city of Beijing (北京, běijīng), as the name of the opera literally translates to "Beijing Opera".
The style of the opera is also closely associated with the culture of the Manchu people (满族, mǎnzú), who were the ruling class of the Qing Dynasty (清朝, qīngcháo).
The costumes and makeup used in 京剧 performances are also iconic symbols of Chinese culture. The traditional makeup is known as "Lianpu" (脸谱, liǎnpǔ), and the costumes are often brightly colored and heavily embroidered.
Finally, 京剧 is also closely associated with the traditional Chinese art of storytelling, known as "Xiqu" (戏曲, xìqǔ). This art form is often used to tell stories of Chinese history and folklore.
