Destination Overview

Tianjin is a key port city and municipality in northern China, where Chinese and Western cultures converge. The Five Great Avenues preserve over a hundred historic buildings featuring the architectural styles of Britain, France, Italy, Germany and other countries, earning it the title of "World Architectural Expo"; the Tianjin Eye Ferris wheel on both banks of the Haihe River and the Ancient Culture Street together form a cityscape that blends the ancient and the modern.

Tianjin is fertile ground for the art of crosstalk, and teahouse crosstalk performances are full of wit and charm. Signature local snacks such as Goubuli steamed buns, jianbing guozi, and Erduoyan fried cakes are renowned across the country.
