Northern China's Tianjin is certainly more than just a city; indeed, it is a truly fascinating and indeed diverse municipality covering 11,760 square kilometers. Its topography encompasses a wide variety of landscapes stretching from a mountainous section of the Great Wall in the north to vast stretches of low-lying, indeed flat land, bordering the Bohai Sea. The main urban center and historic core of Tianjin sit on this plain. It straddles the Haihe River, which historically connected Beijing, via the Grand Canal, with the sea. The plains also incorporate countless villages along with several beautiful water towns.
