Port City of Tianjin
Adjust font size:

Tianjin, nestled against the Pacific coast, is a north China powerhouse. It faces the Bohai Sea to the east, links up with Beijing to the north and borders Hebei to the west and south.

Its name first came into use during the early years of Emperor's Yongle reign in the Ming Dynasty, meaning the ferry port used by an emperor. In 1404, it metamorphosed into a military position of strategic importance, with the construction of city walls beginning and a garrison being barracked there. The city was eventually called Tianjin Port.

Tianjin bears a splendid historical background. Blessed with a myriad of tourist attractions, Tianjin is a good place to explore.

Tianjin, a major economic center for northern China, is a logistics, trade, manufacturing and exhibition hub. It features well-developed electronic and petrochemical industries as well as harboring oil pipeline and auto industries.
