Buses are the most widely used form of transport in Tianjin. There is also a subway that currently operates on four lines across the city, with further lines planned and in construction. A City Card can be purchased, which allows travel on both the subway and buses. There are many railway stations in the city, with the largest being Tianjin Railway Station. Services operating from this station include a bullet train to Beijing. A shuttle bus service runs between Tianjin Railway Station and Tianjin Airport. The airport has regular flights to other major cities in China as well as international flights to destinations all over the world.

Tianjin teahouses are particularly known for their crosstalk entertainment, a form of comic monologue or dialogue. In Tianjin’s Ji county you can visit the Huangyaguan Great Wall, originally built in the 6th century AD and subsequently extended and renovated.
