Tianjin , China |
Tianjin,
one of the four municipalities directly under the Central
Government in China, is located in the northeast of the
North China Plain and is the closest seaport to Beijing.
The city is one of the biggest industrial and port cities
in China and it is also known as "the diamond of the
Bohai Gulf". Tianjin covers an area of 11,000 square
kilometers (4,200 square miles) and has a population in
excess of 10 million people.
Tianjin
has a long and illustrious history, from an ordinary fishing
village to the most important trade center in Northern China.
Tianjin was considered to be one of China's most important
military fortresses in the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368) due to
its particular geographic location as access point to Beijing,
the national capital. Its name "Tianjin" was graciously
bestowed by the Emperor Zhudi in the early years of the Ming
Dynasty (1368 - 1644). Tianjin means "the place where
the emperor crossed the river". In 1860, after the First
Opium War, Tianjin was further expanded to become the second
largest business and communications center in the country.
By the end of the 19th century, it had grown into a bustling
center for international commerce.
