Despite its size and importance as a port, Tianjin lacks the vitality of other large Chinese coastal cities, such as Shanghai or Guangzhou, and is often overshadowed by its bigger neighbor to the northwest, the nation's capital, Beijing. Still, despite its importance to supplying the capital with much of its materials, "TJ" has an identity of its own. And with several ongoing urban renewal and city beautification projects aimed at taking advantage of the city's spectacular treaty port architecture, the city's less-than-stellar reputation as a tourist destination is sure to improve.
Tianjin's climate is similar to, though slightly warmer than, its neighbour Beijing. Overall it can be described as continental; winters are cold and dry, as nights below −10 °C are not uncommon, and summers are hot and humid, with days reaching above the upper 30's °C not out of the question. The best time to visit is autumn, though if you do not mind dust storms, spring would also be an excellent choice.
