By admin on 2015-01-08

Though in November 2009 Binhai (bīn hǎi 滨海) New Area in Tianjin (tiān jīn 天津) was consolidated into an administrative district, and the former subordinate districts of Tanggu (táng gū 塘沽), Hangu (hàn gū 汉沽) and Dagang (dà gǎng 大港) were abolished, many local people still habitually use the old terms of "Tanggu District", "Hangu District" and "Dagang District". "Tanggu" and "TEDA (Tianjin Economic-Technological Development)" are the most popular two words when people think of the new district.

Tanggu is the center of Tianjin Binhai New District. It covers 50km from south to north, and 25km from east to west, and has a coast line of 92.16km. Situated in the east of Tanggu District, the Port of Tianjin is the biggest comprehensive trading port of North China. With the annual 250million tons through put, the Port of Tianjin has trading relations with more than 400 ports in over 180 countries and areas all over the world. Tanggu is also a city with a long history and unique culture. The ancient relics found in the modern city make it charming and mysterious.
