At the foot of Jiuhe River is Tianjinwei, with three pontoon bridges and two passes.
During the troubled times of the Republic of China, the waves of the Haihe River rolled up the chants of bag-carrying gangs at the pier, the ax shadows of the Green and Red Gangs, and the gunshots of foreign-style buildings in the concession. In this river and lake city where "mud legs" and "wei Zuizi" gathered together, it became a boiling pot of old soup.
