• Porcelain House - Upon arrival, you’ll switch to a suitable vehicle: a coach, minivan, car with a private driver, or a taxi for groups of three or fewer. Your first destination is Porcelain House, a 1920s French-style colonial villa adorned with thousands of pieces of ancient porcelain. Inside, the 5,000-square-yard (4,200-square-meter) space houses a museum of porcelain and antiques, featuring stunning marble carvings, crystal, and semi-precious gems from the collection of the owner, Zhang Lianzhi.
• Five Great Avenues - Next, explore more of Tianjin’s international history with a visit to Five Great Avenues (Wudadao), an area with over 2,000 garden-style villas built by occupying powers in the 1920s and 1930s. You may opt for a horse-drawn carriage ride (at your own expense) to fully appreciate the architectural beauty.

Your guide will introduce you to Tianjin’s cuisine during lunch at a local restaurant. As China’s fourth largest city, Tianjin is renowned for its food across the country.

• Ferris wheel, Eye of Tianjin - After lunch, visit the modern landmark, the Tianjin Eye. This 394-foot (120-meter) ferris wheel is built over the Yongle Bridge and is the first and only observation wheel constructed above a bridge. Each of the 64 passenger capsules can hold 8 passengers, allowing a maximum capacity of 768 passengers per hour, with a 30-minute rotation time. Enjoy breathtaking views extending up to 25 miles (40 kilometers) from its highest point.
• Ancient Culture Street (Gu Wenhua Jie) - Your final stop is Tianjin’s Ancient Culture Street, the top shopping spot for traditional Chinese goods. In addition to the Tianhou Temple and shoe museum, there are nearly 100 stores offering items like embroidery, calligraphy, tea sets, seals, and figurines, as well as Tianjin specialties.
