Colonial Architecture Walking Tour in Tianjin
Greetings! Wu Da Dao District, also known as the Five Great Avenues (五大道, Wǔ Dà Dào), is a historic area in the heart of Tianjin, China. This district is renowned for its rich cultural heritage, distinct architectural styles, and historical significance, making it a unique blend of Eastern and Western influences.
### Historical Background
Wu Da Dao encompasses five major roads: Chengdu Road, Chongqing Road, Changde Road, Dali Road, and Munan Road. The district gained prominence during the early 20th century when Tianjin was a treaty port under foreign concessions. This status attracted a diverse population of expatriates, including British, French, Italian, German, and Japanese nationals, who established residences in the area. The neighborhood quickly became a vibrant international community, influencing its cultural and architectural development.
### Architectural Diversity
The Wu Da Dao District is particularly famous for its eclectic architectural styles. The area boasts over 230 buildings with European architectural influences, including Renaissance, Greek, Gothic, and Romantic styles. These buildings often feature ornate facades, arched windows, and decorative elements such as iron balconies and classical columns. The diverse architecture provides a fascinating snapshot of the district's cosmopolitan past, with many structures preserved to maintain their historical and aesthetic value.
Notable buildings in the area include former residences of influential figures such as Zhang Xueliang, a key figure in modern Chinese history, and Liang Qichao, a prominent Chinese scholar and reformist. These historical buildings are now cultural relics, offering visitors a glimpse into the lives of the elite during Tianjin's colonial period.
### Cultural and Social Significance
The Wu Da Dao District is not only an architectural treasure trove but also a cultural hub. It has been home to various educational institutions, consulates, and cultural centers, contributing to the area's cosmopolitan atmosphere. The district's multicultural heritage is reflected in its diverse food offerings, ranging from traditional Chinese cuisine to Western-style bakeries and cafes.
In recent years, Wu Da Dao has become a popular tourist destination, attracting both domestic and international visitors. The area is often likened to an open-air museum due to its well-preserved historical architecture and vibrant street life. Visitors can explore the district on foot, enjoying the scenic tree-lined avenues, historical buildings, and numerous museums and galleries.
### Modern Development and Preservation
While Wu Da Dao has experienced significant modernization, efforts have been made to preserve its historical and cultural heritage. The local government has implemented conservation projects to maintain the architectural integrity of the buildings, ensuring that new developments are in harmony with the district's historical character.
Today, Wu Da Dao stands as a testament to Tianjin's rich history and cultural diversity. It offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern convenience, making it a must-visit location for anyone interested in China's architectural and cultural heritage.

    This is why this United flight is empty. No one would be crazy enough to fly United if they can choose to get on ANA, especially if they cost around the same price. I ALWAYS fly ANA Business Class out of Dulles to Narita/Haneda. Your video clearly showed this: 1--disgusting unappealing looking food. 2--flight attendant stuffing her face standing in the galley. An ANA flight attendant would NEVER do this. In the 20 years I have been flying to Tokyo on ANA, i have never seen any one of them do that.

    UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH I hate those shuttle busses!!! I do not like it! I would rather take the jet bridge. First of all, this whole shuttle bus thing is the least wheelchair accessible thing ever, making a very big inconvenience for wheelchair users to have to carry the wheelchair upstairs. It’s like China thinks everybody’s robots or something. This is why American airport boarding processes are quite the greater convenience for wheelchair people compared to China. China needs to get rid of those shuttlebus thingies and just make some longer runways, or longer jet bridges. Whatever. As long as it’s not the shuttlebus craziness. It’s driving me nuts!!! I am very concerned about Chinese airports and getting this whole shuttle bus thing. They need more jet, bridges and more long runways.

    The lobby looks very similar to the Astor House Hotel in ShanghaI so I would guess there is some association between the two. My grandfather Charles Eddie Hsu (Hsu Ting-Zuo) was the propreitor of the Grill Room restaurant at the Astor House Shanghai in the nineteen-teens so I have a special affinity for this hotel group. Unfortunately the Shanghai one closed a few years ago.

I have flown UA Polaris Class - nothing special in my book.

    I've also flown United long haul many times; to Delhi, Tokyo, Singapore, and Europe. I totally agree that one should keep their expectations flying United Polaris on the low side. Their hard product is okay, but their food and service have a lot to be desired. I've decided to fly ANA when traveling to Japan and as for India, Emirates hands down is superlative! A380 Business Class with the cocktail lounge in the back. Service, comfort, hard product and overall condition of their aircraft can't be beat. In the meantime, United is flying some pretty old aircraft! Thanks for posting!
