Tang Gu : Tian Jin
Photos from China
In 2004 I wrote an article at Magic City News about a trip I took to Tanggu in TianJin China.
Because I lost some files when transferring from one server to another, I recently was trying to work out if I ever put Extra photos of Tianjin at KingsCalendar. If I did, I didn't list a link to it in the Magic City Article.
At any rate, this file contains some additional photos to those at Magic City. I used quite a lot of photos in that article, but they were quite small. Here, the photos I use are somewhat larger.
I hope you enjoy them.
The First 3 are of Wuhan before the trip
Under the Qin Chuan Bridge between Hankou and Hanyang over the HanJiang river
Looking toward Hankou
In ZhongShan Park in Hankou
The next 3 are In the park in Tanggu Tianjin
Looking toward the pillars This is where the boys were skating. Lots of people congregate to dance etc at night.

I've never been a drinker and normally refuse the hospitality This night I gave in and got drunk.
On the Waterfront
Taken in a park on the waterfront An Island blocks the view to the ocean. The sculpture of the boy is urinating.
The Main Street Mall in Tanggu
The next two were over the road from my hotel
A view of one end of the Market Mall
An exotic place to be sure. A chinese market in the Mall This is a side branch market place within the Market Mall
Two views of the 'Fast Train' line.
This train is very quick
The interesting thing about the ride is: That as the train leaves each station, a uniformed attendant salutes the departing train.
3 Architectural views
A sculpture outside my hotel
In the Grecian Style The nudity is not covered up.
Recreation Chinese Style
In the same park as the Pillars At night, people dance, talk, roller scate etc.
