The poor mans version of Beijing. If youre a foreigner, Tianjin a great place to live for a few years. Prices are cheap, people are overwhelmingly friendly and laid-back, and it has all the conveniences of a big city with the atmosphere of a small town (if thats possible for a metropolis of 9m). If youre a tourist however, Tianjin offers only minimal destinations of note, and most of these center around food. To be specific, Tianjin is most famous for four types of food:
1) Gou-buli Baozi (pork/veggie buns)
2) 18 Street Ma Hua (hard twisted churro-like sticks)
3) Er-duo (some salty/sweet ear-shaped pastries)
4) Jian-bing Guozi (breakfast burrito with oil-stick in the middle)
Other recommended sights:
Ancient Culture Street (bring your negotiation skills)
Bin Jiang Street (Tianjins answer to Nanjing Road)
Food Street (notice the recurring street theme)
TV Tower (get a great view of the smog from above!)
Nankai and Tianjin University (Chinas Princeton and Brown)
