Tianjin is awarded “China's Best Leisure and Shopping City” on November 2 for its traditional business culture and its modern leisure and shopping environment.

“More and more facilities have been built in Tianjin, and Tianjin becomes more competitive in goods prices all the time. Historically, Tianjin is typical business city.” This is what Chang Hong，vice president of the School of Tourism of Nankai University said.

The competition is judged by four criteria: landmarks of the city, leisure environment, leisure conditions and leisure economy.
