Brilliant and rich history and culture
Hongqiao District was the cradleland of Tianjin . The Sancha Estuary where the Ziya River , the South Grand Canal, and the North Grand Canal meet was the water transport hub, the Capital portal and the important place of water transport transfer. The flourishing time was recorded in a famous painting in the Qing Dynasty. In 1400, the Ming Dynasty, the Yan King Zhu Di led the troops crossing the Zhigu (present Beidaguan area), went southward and won Cangzhou. Later on in 1404, Zhigu was fortified with a wall and city and was given the name “ Tianjin ” (namely the river where the King had crossed). There was a memorial archway built in the place where the troops crossed. Hongqiao is the commerce cradle of Tianjin . The well-established Guyijie, Beidaguan and Dahutong are still excellent and the most typical ancient commercial streets. And Hongqiao is the cradle of mechanical foundry industry in Tianjin and the industrial cradle in the North China . Hongqiao is also China and Tianjin modern education's cradle. And the first national modern University—Beiyang University, the first government secondary school in Tianjin—the Tianjin Government Secondary School (commonly known as the Lingdangge Middle School) and the first government primary school in Tianjin—the Hebei Dasi Primary School were all located here. Furthermore, Hongqiao has been the place where the elegant culture flourished. There was a famous private garden Shuixizhuang, established in the Qing Dynasty in 1723, where the literati from all over China used to get together and Qianlong, the 6 th King in the Qing Dynasty, had been for four times.
