Loop the Five Great Avenues — Chengdu, Changde, Chongqing, Munan and Machang — before the tour groups arrive; coffee on the corner of the old embassies.
The city's grandest cathedral, then the shopping strip: Quanyechang bazaar and the department stores.
After the china villa, walk the old banking street — marble bank façades from 1903 and the "Chinese Wall Street".
Marco Polo Square, then the 47-tonne Century Clock at the railway station — the classic postcard.
Mingliu Teahouse or Old City Xiaoliyuan — an evening of Tianjin humour, tea and sunflower seeds.
The 19:30 ferry from Lion Forest Bridge to Daguangming — bridges lit, river glowing.
From the railway station, the through train runs to Tanggu in under an hour (¥5).
Haggle for imported gadgets and dried seafood at Tanggu's famous market, then stroll the Binhai new town's boulevards.
Climb the decommissioned Soviet carrier "Kiev" (¥160) — flight deck, museum and marina views of the Bohai coast.
End at the seaside boardwalk near the Dongjiang pier — sea breeze, kite surfers and a train back to the city at dusk.
