Heping Road & Binjiang Road
和平路·滨江道
Tianjin’s century-old commercial “Golden Street,” with Hall of Industry, time-honored brands, and shopping malls. It connects with Binjiang Road, where the Xikai Church stands.
Heping Road runs from Zhangzhongzheng Road in the north to Yingkou Road in the south. It intersects with Binjiang Road to form a cross-shaped pedestrian shopping street, and it is Tianjin’s oldest commercial district. Its landmark is the Hall of Industry, built in 1928. The dome on its roof, called “Heaven Beyond Heaven,” is a symbol of old Tianjin. Nearby time-honored brands include Yuanzhong Department Store, the old Meihua Shoe Store, Guishunzhai, and Kiessling Bakery. Shopping on the street is free. Metro stations on Yingkou Road and Heping Road provide access. Walking south brings you to Xikai Church, and to the west is the Five Avenues area.
