How to accurately describe a tourist attraction? For example, Tianjin Italian style area?

Dear friends, welcome to Tianjin Haihe Italian style area. This is the only Italian historical building complex in Asia, and it is also the most intact historical block outside Italy. It's rare. I guess everyone didn't expect it. The distance from Tianjin to Rome exceeds 1 1000 km. It's too far for everyone to go to Italy, and it's the same to walk around here. Some small foreign buildings are hard to see even in Italy. This position where everyone stands is one of the entrances to the Italian amorous feelings area, the intersection of Bo 'ai Road and minzu road.

At present, Italian style street can be basically divided into "three verticals and seven horizontals" and "three verticals": minzu road is the middle one with Bei 'an Road on the left, so it was renamed Shengli Road. Not far from the right is Minsheng Road. "Seven Horizons": From Boai Road to the north, there are Freedom Road, Guangfu Road, Progressive Road, Democratic Road, Guangming Road and Jianguo Road. Look (pointing to the Xiaoyanglou along Boai Road), these European-style buildings have different styles, and there are many more interesting ones going inside. In Tianjin dialect, it is called "North II".

Let me tell you about the origin of the Italian style area first. 1860 After the Second Opium War, imperialism and western powers successively forcibly opened nine concessions in Tianjin, namely, Britain, France, the United States, Japan, Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Belgium, ranking first in the country. Tianjin Italian Concession was demarcated in 1902 after Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China.

At that time, the Italian army occupied the north bank of Haihe River, and the Italian government wanted to protect the interests of Italians in commerce and shipping, and also opened a consulate in Tianjin. The Italian minister even threatened to occupy the salt piles here by intimidation and force, threatening that all the losses of the salt merchants would not be compensated. Of course, in the end, the interests of salt merchants were not effectively protected. On the north bank of Haihe River, it used to be a large open-air salt storage field. Tianjin people call it swallow camel. In ancient times, there were poems describing it as "salt piles up like a mountain", "dew is bright" and "iceberg is ten feet high", which is a very spectacular sight.

After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, the China government reclaimed the Italian concession. The main facilities of the Italian Concession in those days are basically well preserved. At present, Tianjin and Hebei District are building this area together with the former Austro-Hungarian Concession into a tourist area with Italian and Austrian customs. Many buildings have been repaired and are being developed and utilized.

Welcome everyone to visit Tianjin.
