Beitang Ancient Town | A small fishing town with half of the late Qing Dynasty's history Beitang Ancient Town, Binhai New Area, Tianjin Shuanglei Fort ➕ Cat Pond Secret Realm 25¥ Shuanglei Fort Upon entering the city gate, the first thing that catches the eye is the glaring two lines of words: "On August 1, 1860, the Anglo-French Allied Forces occupied Beitang Fort. The gateway of the Celestial Empire fell, and the Anglo-French Allied Forces pointed their spearheads directly at Beijing." This directly pulls people back to the grand scene of that humiliating history over a hundred years ago, with the huge city walls and glaring words. In stark contrast to Shuanglei Fort, the Cat Pond Secret Realm employs extremely interesting settings, narrating from the perspective of a constantly traversing pond cat. Under such arrangements, that period of history becomes no longer dull but rather vivid, making people want to explore further as they wander around.

When it comes to Tianjin, or the tourist impressions related to it, most friends might think of the Five Great Avenues, the Eye of Tianjin, Panshan, Tianjin Ancient Culture Street, Water Park, and so on. However, there is a fake ancient town in Tianjin that cost 2 billion yuan. It is known as half of the history of the late Qing Dynasty, and it doesn't require a ticket but is rarely visited! Curious friends might ask, where exactly is this 2 billion yuan fake ancient town in Tianjin? What different scenery does it have? With these questions and curiosity, let's talk today about the stories of Beitang Ancient Town. Beitang in Tianjin has been a village since the early Ming Dynasty when it was formed by immigrants following Emperor Chengzu Zhu Di, and it has a history of over 600 years. Beitang, located by the river and near the sea, has been rich and prosperous since ancient times due to the benefits of fish, salt, and canal transportation. Beitang was a key town for coastal defense during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and a royal fortress city, witnessing the rise and fall of the empires of both dynasties. Therefore, it is known as half of the history of the late Qing Dynasty in Tianjin. During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, two forts were built in Beitang, historically known as the 'Beitang Twin Forts'. In June 1900, the Eight-Nation Alliance captured the Dagu Fort, and the Beitang Fort, located 30 li from the Dagu Fort, was also surrounded by the powers.
