Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal

In the section of Yangliuqing Town, Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, Tianjin is a node city along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. "First there are three forks, then Tianjin Wei". In the past, salt tea rice and other goods shipped from the south, whether by sea or river, must be transferred here for transportation. Most of the grain will go north along the canal to Tongzhou to enter Beijing. Take a cruise during the day to reach the pier of Yangliuqing Ancient Town. The scenery along the way is relatively simple, mainly to experience the comfort of taking a boat on the Grand Canal. Staying at Yangliuqing at night, you can see the night view of the Grand Canal and the night of the ancient town. The overall interest is not high, mainly his historical precipitation and cultural heritage.

Tianjin is adjacent to Beijing, which occupies an important position in the transportation. Sanchakou is the center of Tianjin, so it has become the earliest dry dock and commodity distribution center in Tianjin, known as the "cradle of Tianjin", witnessing the development and prosperity of Tianjin City. The slope of the North Canal is relatively large, the river is relatively shallow, after the trough ship to Tianjin, the 400-material ship into the North Canal to Tongzhou is very difficult, you need to peel the ship, and then unload a part from the big ship, so that it will eat shallow and then go up. In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the sea ban was eased, forming a sea route through the north and south. At this point, Tianjin was not only a canal hub, but also an important window for foreign trade. In 1932, the total amount of cotton imported and exported from Tianjin accounted for 93.4 [%] of the country.

Tianjin has its unique position along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, because it is not only a node city on the canal, but also an important sea outlet in the northern region. Not only bears the function of shipping, because it is close to the capital, it is also the gateway of the capital, and its unique status makes the city known as "modern China see Tianjin". "First there are three forks, then there is Tianjin Wei", Tianjin's three forks is the Haihe River and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal between the North Canal and the South Canal in Tianjin. In the past, salt, tea, rice, silk and other goods shipped from the south, whether by sea or river, must be transferred here and shipped, most of which will go north along the canal to Tongzhou to Beijing.

The beauty of Tianjin Grand Canal is reflected in the haunting Haihe Park. The most mesmerizing thing is the beauty of the sparkling lights of the sea and rivers after the nightfall. The lights of the two sides are bright and dark, reflected in the river, floating like a beautiful color, the slow flowing water, and sent a road of color to the far away, this is the bright water, people produce infinite thought.

Beautiful scenery on both sides of the Straits, strong humanistic atmosphere, a good place to relax and watch!
