What is the virtual page size on windows

On linux this can be found by running 

getconf PAGESIZE

How can this parameter be found on Windows? Is it even a parameter, or just a constant?

From wikipedia:

Windows-based operating systems Win32-based operating systems, such as those in the Windows 9x and Windows NT families, may use the system function GetSystemInfo() from kernel32.dll.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <windows.h>     
int main(void) 
{   
    SYSTEM_INFO si;     
    GetSystemInfo(&si);     
    printf("The page size for this system is %u bytes.\n", si.dwPageSize);      
    return 0; 
}

I couldn't find any direct command that you can run to find it out.
