About the Area for SilverDoor Serviced Apartments in Tianjin

Where’s Tianjin? It is on the Hai He River southeast of Beijing and its ports, some distance away, are located on Bohai Gulf in the Pacific Ocean. A high-speed rail link to Beijing should be opened in 2007.

Tianjin's climate is characterized by hot, humid summers, due to the monsoon, and dry, cold winters, due to the Siberian anticyclone. Spring is windy but dry, and most of the precipitation takes place in July and August.

Tianjin Economic-Technological Development Area, commonly abbreviated as TEDA, is a free market zone in formed in late 1984 and currently has more foreign businesses in it than all of Shanghai. It is a vast area by the seaside containing a port, business buildings, urban residential areas, and an extensive transportation network. TEDA also contains the football Stadium which is used for Tianjin's football team, Tianjin Teda FC. While technically part of Tianjin, TEDA feels very much like its own city and is about 40 minutes from downtown Tianjin. The introduction of the rapid transit system Binhai Mass Transit in 2004 has made the travel time between Tianjin downtown and TEDA much quicker and more convenient.
