  • Description: The Chinese city of Tianiin (formerly known as Tientsin) paradoxically presents an almost unrivalled view of early 20th century European architecture. This comes about as the foreign concessions, which were discrete European enclaves, were far more numerous and varied than the better-known concessions of Shanghai. The first were the French and British, established under the treaty signed in 1860 with Beiiing as a somewhat delayed conclusion to the Second Opium war. Each concession was autonomous and provided its own drainage, lighting, road making, and other public works.
