Tianjin is already in the off-season, so I really don’t recommend going there in April

In April, Tianjin is filled with spring breeze 🌬️ and blooming flowers 🌸. It has the grandeur of a northern city and the gentleness and romance of spring. This city full of fireworks and historical charm is waiting for you to explore! Take this guide and start an unforgettable trip to Tianjin! Itinerary Day 1: Strolling in European style Morning: After arriving in Tianjin, head straight to Wudadao Cultural Tourism Zone🚶. This place brings together buildings of various styles from countries including Britain, France, and Germany, and is known as the "International Architecture Expo". Rent a bicycle 🚲 to travel through the streets, admire the unique architecture of streets such as Machang Road and Munan Road, check in at the Qingwang Palace, and feel the weight of history. Noon: Taste Tianjin’s specialties near Wudadao. The Goubuli steamed buns have even folds, and the soup overflows when you take a bite; the pancakes are wrapped in crispy and paired with chopped green onion sauce, which is fragrant 😋. Afternoon: Go to the Porcelain House. This building decorated with tens of thousands of ancient porcelain pieces is priceless and great for taking photos! Then stroll through the Italian-style area. The European-style buildings on both sides of the street complement the street cafes and Western restaurants, making you feel like you are in a romantic European town. Day 2: Feel the charm of Haihe River Morning: Come to Tianjin Eye 🎡 and ride on the only Ferris wheel built on a bridge in Asia. Slowly rise into the air and take in the beautiful scenery of the Haihe River and the city. Noon: Enjoy lunch at the Ancient Culture Street and try the ear-shaped fried cakes, which have a crispy outer skin and sweet and soft bean paste filling; pair it with a bowl of old tofu, which has a rich and fragrant aroma. Afternoon: Stroll along the banks of the Haihe River, passing by landmark buildings such as the Jiefang Bridge and the Century Clock. You can also choose to take a Haihe River cruise 🛥️ and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the river from the water. In the evening, the lights come on and the night view of the Haihe River is bright and charming. Day 3: Exploring History and Art Morning: Visit Tianjin Museum, which has rich collections, from calligraphy and painting, bronze ware to porcelain, showing the historical and cultural heritage of Tianjin in all aspects📚. Noon: Taste Tianjin’s Eight Treasures Tofu, which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and paired with eight kinds of seafood, it is very fresh and fragrant. Afternoon: Go to Xikai Church to feel the solemnity of the religious building. Finally, we checked in at Tianjin Cultural Center, where the library, art gallery, theater and other buildings have unique architectural styles and a strong artistic atmosphere. Accommodation Recommendations 1. Peace District: ◦ Tianjin Astor Hotel: A historic luxury hotel adjacent to the Haihe River, with many attractions nearby. Some rooms offer river views🛏️ and first-class service quality. ◦ Atour Hotel: high cost-effectiveness, superior location, convenient transportation, simple and comfortable rooms, and complete supporting facilities. 2. Nankai District: ◦ Shangri-La Hotel, Tianjin: Located near the Ancient Culture Street, the hotel has an elegant environment and complete hotel facilities, suitable for family and business travel. Things to do in Tianjin ✅ Cycle along Fifth Avenue and explore the "International Architecture". ✅Take a ride on the Tianjin Eye and overlook the panoramic view of the city🌃. ✅Taste the three unique Tianjin delicacies: Goubuli steamed buns, Shibajie fried dough twist, and Erduoyan fried cake. ✅Tour the Haihe River at night and experience the dazzling night view of Tianjin. ✅Listen to the hymns in Xikai Church and feel the tranquility and sacredness. Precautions The temperature in Tianjin gradually warms up in April, but there is a big temperature difference between morning and evening, so it is recommended to bring a thin jacket🧥. Some popular attractions have a large number of tourists, so you can book tickets online in advance🎫. Tianjin has well-developed public transportation. When traveling, try to take the subway or bus to avoid congestion. When tasting delicious food, choose regular stores to ensure food hygiene.
