TIENTSIN
Tientsin is situated at the junction of the Huei river, sometimes called the Grand Canal, with the Peiho river, in lat. 39 deg. 3 min. 55 sec. N. and long. 117 deg. 3 min. 55 sec. E. It is distant from Peking by road about 80 miles. It was formerly only a military station, but towards the close of the 17th century it became a place of some importance. Since the Viceroy Li Hung-chang made Tientsin his residence during the busy part of the year instead of Pao-ting-fu, the provincial capital, the political importance of the place has necessarily much increased. A great stimulus to native building has also been imparted by the opening of the railway in 1888. The walled city is small compared with the suburbs, the circumference of the walls being only a little over three miles. The principal trade is carried on in the suburbs. The native city has the reputation of being exceptionally dirty. Of the local industries the distilling of samshu from kaoliang (sorghum) occupies a prominent place, and the enormous stacks of salt which line the east bank of the river are a striking feature. The salt is produced on the coast near Taku.
Foreigners live for the most part in the Concessions, British and French, situated about a mile and a half farther down on the south bank of the river. The British Concession possesses a handsome Town Hall completed in 1889, and a small recreation ground called Victoria Park,
