Cultural resources propel growth in Tianjin





Rich historical and cultural resources serve as a cornerstone for urban development, and leveraging these advantages can create unique economic growth points to propel the construction of modern metropolises, deputies to the 14th National People's Congress said on the sidelines of the just concluded third session of the 14th NPC.
"Historic resources, including industrial relics and cultural landmarks, have been preserved and repurposed in Tianjin. Projects along the Haihe River, Nanjing Road and Beijing Street have transformed the city into a living cultural landscape," said Chen Fukuan, deputy secretary of the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China.
Chen made the remarks during a panel discussion by the Tianjin delegation in Beijing on Thursday, adding that Tianjin has made significant progress in cultural development, with strengthened efforts to build a culturally vibrant city.
