Sino-German Tianjin Daqiuzhuang Eco-city (the “Sino-German Eco-city” for short) is located at the junction of Tianjin and southern farming area, bounded by Duliu Flood Relief Channel. Along the river originating in Xiongan, there are several reservoirs adjacent to each other. Neighboring to Tuanpohu Wetland Reserve, the Sino-German Eco-city has a very good ecological environment.

Integrating with the industrial status and ecological base of Daqiuzhuang, based on the “Sino-German Ecologic Model City” cooperation project, we seized the opportunity of German Industry 4.0, took the advantages of geography, drew lessons from Xiong’an New Area’s planning concept, adhered to international standards, and created a superior plan with Tianjin characteristics. It is hoped that Sino-German Tianjin Daqiuzhuang Eco-city is built into an eco-friendly city, a smart city, a modern city and a livable city.

We strengthened the base aggregation effect, and planned a continuous ecological open space to form a compound space from culture to ecology and from city to nature. The planning adopts the spatial structure of “one axis, one center, two corridors and three parks”. “One axis” is the central urban development axis, running through the whole Sino-German Eco-city, and connecting the urban administrative center in the east and the natural ecological landscape area in the west. “One center”, combined with the central water system, is built into the urban living room as the urban public center; “Two corridors” are the industrial revitalization corridor built on the basis of Baiyi Street and the ecological expansion corridor based on the new water system. “Four areas” include Corporate Headquarters Park, Sino-German Cultural Park, Baiyi Street Enterprise Incubation Park and four livable communities.
