Tianjin – The city

Tianjin is located at northeast of North China, facing Bohai River on east and bordering the Yanshan Mountain in north.

A modern city nicknamed ‘The Shanghai of the North’, Tianjin is also blessed with an abundant variety of spectacular natural excursions.

Tianjin has a rich history that you’ll see in the old British and Italian concession areas, the port and the many examples of European architecture.
