Beichen District is located in the northern part of Tianjin, in the middle of Beijing and Tianjin, and is an important node of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei synergistic development. As the "northern gate" of Tianjin, it has convenient transportation, relying on the Beijing-Tianjin Expressway, the Beijing-Tianjin High Speed Railway and other trunk lines, forming a fast urban corridor connecting Beijing and Tianjin. Economically, Beichen takes high-end equipment manufacturing, biomedicine, new materials and other industries as its pillars, and the Beichen Economic and Technological Development Zone brings together many high-tech enterprises, which is one of the core engines of Tianjin's industrial innovation. In terms of ecology, Yongding River and Yongding New River pass through the city, and Beichen Country Park, Longfeng River and other ecological landscapes add green heritage to the city. Meanwhile, this area also carries the cultural history of the Cao Yun, and places such as the Beichen Museum bear witness to the city's heritage and vitality. Nowadays, Beichen is developing in the direction of "industry-strengthening and ecological livability", and has become a vibrant urban area with modern industrial charm and natural and humanistic atmosphere.
