Places suitable for winter fun in Tianjin

1. Recommended attractions. 1. Racecourse Road is the first featured street on Fifth Avenue. On this narrow road, there are nearly 300 small Western-style buildings, each of which has a history behind it, either famous or little-known. You can walk along Racecourse Road. When you get tired, there are many nice restaurants where you can sit down and eat. Munan Road: 1968 meters in total length. Walk 300 meters west to east along Machang Road and turn right. There are many former residences of famous people here, such as Dongling robber Sun Dianying, Zhang Xueliang's brother Zhang Xueming and the last emperor Puyi. Dali Road: 1,745 meters long. There are also foreign small Western-style buildings of different styles along the street. Changde Road: 1,219 meters long, there is the former residence of Zhang Fuyu, director of customs affairs of the Ministry of Finance of the Kuomintang government (No. 2 Changde Road), and a good restaurant. Chongqing Road: There is a Qing palace, which was a small private residence for the eunuchs who were in charge in the late Qing Dynasty. There are also many places for dining and entertainment, such as karaoke bars, Donghai Fishing Village, Zhonglian Western Restaurant, etc. Chengdu Road: 2206 meters in length, with many teahouses and bars, such as Su Xi Restaurant, Little London Western Restaurant, Western Restaurant, 1931 Mona Bar, Dole Bar, Qingming, Lowe's Bar, etc. Jiefang North Road, the old concession, is now Tianjin's Financial Street, where all the Tianjin branches of major banks have a place. This building is also the most distinctive building in the Tianjin Concession and has a long history. 2. University District: Tianjin’s universities are mainly concentrated on Weijin Road, including Nankai University, Tianjin University, and Normal University. I personally think the Tianjin University campus is the most beautiful, especially in the summer. You can hide from the scorching sun in the shadow of a big tree, or look at the lotus flowers in a daze by the Horseshoe Lake of Nankai University. Jinhe: The other two gates of Nankai University are on Fukang Road. The smelly river in front was transformed into a good place for small bridges and flowing water, and is now called Jinhe. From Balitai Overpass, through Nankai University to the First Central Hospital, there is a long rehabilitation road with charming scenery. Suggestion: Single men and women who come to Tianjin should not linger too long by the Tianjin River at Nankai University on the way to recovery. The world of two people in love there may irritate your sensitive nerves. Higher Education Bookstore and Balitai Cultural Market: Just opposite NTU, you can buy CD/VCD/clothing and study books here. Although Balitai Cultural Market is not as good as Beijing's Wantong New World and Xidan Warwick, you can still gain something by browsing carefully. Tianjin TV Tower: At the other end of Weijin Road, near Ning's house. Before the Shanghai Oriental Pearl Tower was built, it was said to be the tallest TV tower in China. Even now, it has a lot of character because it is built on a lake and is surrounded by water. There is nothing much to see in winter, but in other seasons there is a water curtain movie, which is very spectacular. On sunny days, there will be many people flying kites on the platform. 3. Monuments: Buddhism: Dabei Temple on Tianwei Road, Hebei District is a temple dedicated to Buddhism from all directions. Built during the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, the courtyard also enshrines the spiritual bones of Master Xuanzang, a monk from the Tang Dynasty. The Great Tragedy Hospital has two outstanding features. First, the Main Hall in the center of the courtyard houses hundreds of bronze, wood, and stone sculptures from the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which are rare works of art in the world. Secondly, Dabeiyuan’s Suzhai has always been famous for turning soy products into magic and making delicious dishes. There is a memorial hall of Master Hongyi in Dabei Temple, which contains mostly photos and calligraphy works of the master after he became a monk. Islam: Mosques for several days. It has many ancient plaques and is also one of the few best-preserved Chinese architectural mosques in China. Catholic: Casey Church is a Catholic church located on Binjiang Road in the city center. To the west is World Customs Street, where you can buy exotic handicrafts and souvenirs. You can stop by International Mall, Isetan, and Binjiang Road for shopping.

It combines Chaozhou style and northern architectural features and is the largest and most exquisitely decorated Qing Dynasty hall building in Tianjin.

Shijia Courtyard: Bus No. 153 from Tianjin West Railway Station goes directly to Yangliuqing. The fare is 2 yuan and the journey takes about 60 minutes. Tickets for the Shijia Courtyard (i.e. Yangliuqing Museum) at No. 47 Jing Street, Yangliuqing are 8 yuan. The movie "Alive" and the TV series "Sunrise" were both filmed in Shijia Compound. It is the master's house of "Zunmeitang", one of the "Eight Great Masters" in Tianjin in the late Qing Dynasty. It is the most complete and largest residential building complex in China during the late Qing Dynasty. The architecture is elegant and luxurious, the brick and wood carvings are exquisite, and the interior furnishings are full of human feelings. Known as the "No. 1 House in Jinxi". There are also various interesting folk activities, sets of clay figurines, New Year pictures, etc. Speaking of Yangliuqing paintings, the history can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty. The New Year pictures here have always maintained a simple style, mostly featuring classical figures, folk figures and festive events. It's a pity that I don't buy a few New Year pictures here. Huo Yuanjia's former residence: located in Xiaonanhe Village, Nanhe Town. Huo Yuanjia's coffin was moved and buried here on April 29, 1898. It has become a patriotic education base to enhance Wu Jing’s connections with friends at home and abroad and to promote the national spirit.

It’s really worth spending some time to savor it, and maybe you’ll find a lot of good stuff.
