The Five Major Avenues

The Five Major Avenues once was British settlement, so there are plenty of architectures with different styles. It now has become one of the most popular scenic spots in Tianjin, especially Race Course Road and MuNan Road. Without broad roads, The Five Major Avenues has300 small western-style mansions, and each of them contains a history deserving exploration. The most beautiful period of The Five Major Avenues is from May to November, especially in autumn when leaves turn golden and branches wreath with vines.

With its characteristic architectures and gardens, The Five Major Avenues is famous for mainly three reasons. Firstly, it forms an architectural complex with all kinds of western-style buildings. Secondly, the privacy of mansions here contributes to a quiet-and-secluded street style. Thirdly, many politicians and dignitaries of modern times live here.
