Across China: Tianjin

Port for cruise ships in June

Tianjin Port will open to international cruise ships for refueling and maintenance in June this year, the port operator said yesterday.

China currently has three so-called homeports where refueling and maintenance facilities are available for international cruise liners; these are in Shanghai, Xiamen in Fujian province and Sanya in Hainan province, all of them in the south.
