Continuing north through Teda, beyond Tianjin University of Science and Technology, a high-level bridge spans the Yongding River - the same watercourse that flows through Beijing's Mentougou and under the famed "Marco Polo Bridge" at Lugou Qiao. Fishing boats and small container vessels were moored in the waters below as we continued toward another renowned environmental development.
