Tianjin literally means the emperor's ford (天子的渡口) as i know.

Yep, that's already in the article. -- [[User:Ran|ran (talk)]] 16:31, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)

I am pretty sure 泥人常 is also based in Tianjin. He is on the same level of 泥人张 in terms of both fame and skills. I saw collections of the two masters' work in the Tianjin Art Museum 20 years ago.

To add to this article: the fact that Jinmen (津门) is an alternate name for Tianjin. 173.88.246.138 (talk) 06:11, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

To add to this article: a good map showing where Tianjin is located in comparison with nearby cities. The current one at the top of the article is extremely substandard. 173.88.246.138 (talk) 01:12, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
