Tianjin Binhai Library
During recent years Tianjin Binhai Library became a very famous touristic attraction not only for locals, but also from the tourists from other cities (especially from Beijing). It got the popularity because it’s unique design. White walls with “waves” of the bookshelves all around the building. It has a nickname “The Eye” because of the white sphere in the middle of the main hall. The facade of the library also looks like a huge eye. Books in the shelves all around the walls are fake. They are there to create a special atmosphere. It’s possible to take a book in the reading rooms near the main hall.
📍Address- 旭升路347號. From downtown road will take 1,5 hour.

Binhai Library
📍 Tianjin, Binhai Cultural Center.
🚘 It’s quite far from the city center.
It’s a 5️⃣-level library.
👁 It’s nickname is “The Evil Eye” because the sphere.
🏨 There were not many restaurants, shopping places and hotels around but we visited around 4 years ago.
💰 There is not entrance fee.
⭕️Btw if you are going to find many books and study I have to tell there are not many books, the “books” you see everywhere in the picture are just 3D posters. The place is more like a park to take pictures and most of people visit for photos.

The library feature in Jackie Chan's movie
Taking the maglev train from Beijing to Tianjin is a convenient and efficient 30-minute journey, followed by a 45-minute Didi ride to the Binhai district, home to the iconic Tianjin Binhai Library.
The library is a remarkable architectural marvel, often referred to as "The Eye" due to its stunning design, with cascading bookshelves surrounding a large central sphere. It offers a quiet and spacious environment, perfect for exploration and photography. The unique layout and futuristic aesthetic make it a dream for photographers, and a visit of 30-45 minutes is typically enough to enjoy its highlights and capture some memorable photos.
The Tianjin Binhai Library is a must-visit if you're in Tianjin, especially for architecture enthusiasts and those seeking a unique cultural experience. Its striking design and peaceful atmosphere make it a memorable addition to any travel itinerary.

I took the high-speed train to Tianjin again for a library.
I really love and hate the Binhai New Area Library.
The reason I love it is that I chose to travel to Tianjin for the second time because of it.
The reason I hate it is that it is quite far away and I can't use a camera to take pictures.
So this is also a note I took with my phone recently.
But after I edited the picture, I found that
It is so magnificent and eye-catching.
It's really, really, really photogenic.
I was really amazed.
Completely offset the hate~hahahaha
Although the space activity area has completely become a place for clocking in and taking photos,
But I can't stop people who love books from wandering and immersing themselves in reading in the "Golden House".
I really admire this.
Like friends, please note that the journey is quite far.
But for the sake of the picture, you can rush.

Checked in at Tianjin Binhai Library
The Binhai Library is quite nice, as soon as you enter, you're at the popular check-in spot. The photo-taking area and the reading area are completely separate.
From the second floor, take the elevator to floors 3-5 where there are many reading rooms, study rooms, etc., which are not affected by the noise of people checking in. The area division and design are quite reasonable.
The study rooms are not crowded, and seats are readily available. You can borrow books with your ID card, which is very convenient, and you generally don't need to make a reservation. A simple security check is all that's needed, and the experience is quite good.
Many children come to this cultural center on weekends. The library, science museum, art museum, and many training classes and dining options are all inside, offering a one-stop solution that is extremely convenient.

Punch the Tianjin most beautiful library
Tianjin's new network red landmark, the Binhai New Area Library, known as the most beautiful library, is really beautiful!
This is a magical building. If it is the ocean of books, it is the Milky Way of the book.
There is no book in the "most beautiful library"? nonsense!
That's because everyone's attention is focused on this "white planet" hall.
In fact, the Binhai Library has five floors, each with a book lending room, and books of all kinds can be found.
