Historical and Cultural Values of the Modern Historic Parks in Tianjin<br>- the British Concession Reviewed International coauthorship
Jiang Benyan, Liu Yichen

This paper takes the British concession in Tianjin as an example, trying to clarify the historical and cultural values of the first parks. The first park, Victoria Park, was built as a memorial facility. It received many visitors including Chinese, with numerous outdoor concerts providing the citizens with great enjoyment. Although there were conflicts between the Chinese and British, objectively, it greatly improved Tianjin′s landscape and provided a much healthier environment. The other parks in the British Extra Rural Extension were endowed with specific roles in creating an ideal city with light, air and spaces for recreation. The planning theories behind these parks pushed the modernizing process of Chinese cities. Besides, the parks brought new materials and new styles to Chinese traditional gardens, so they have high historical, cultural and academic value. Therefore, we suggest the government carry out a basic investigation and create a database of modern parks. The value of a park should be evaluated from both an urban planning aspect and the park itself. As for park conservation, the natural landform, spatial structure, visual organization, building, entrance space, wall, pavement, plants and relationship with its surroundings needs to be well evaluated.

&nbsp;This research clarified the development process of Tianjin's Original British Concession from 1860 until about 1900. It was designed by Charles George Gordon, and many commercial facilities were located there. The result of my research shows the roads in the area were built without any consideration of the existing roads. Many commercial facilities were created later, and the companies at that time made some wharfs and piers. A German called Detring, the chairman of the Council, built some public facilities. And many products of the Self-Strengthening Movement such as academies and a railway were constructed in the outskirts of the Original British Concession including the opposite bank of Pei Ho River depicted on the map of 1888. It is obvious that the Original British Concession and its surroundings became a place where Western technique and culture were accepted and even imitated by Chinese locals.

THE DEVELOPMENT INTENT AND DETAILS OF THE BRITISH EXTRA RURAL EXTENSION IN TIANJIN, CHINA Reviewed

This research clarified the overall image of the development plans of Tianjin's British Extra Rural Extension. In the formation of British Extra Rural Extension, we can see that 1917's design was modified in 1925 and was carried out for the first time in the same year. The minimum intention of providing a comfortable life style by 1917's design was maintained by 1925's modification, which fulfilled the conditions required for a modern city. The difference between the two plans was the change from road pattern design to block space design. It can also be said that the pioneering designs such as the British Extra Rural Extension were seen in Tianjin's other concessions and also in other settlement areas in China. Since this type of modern city planning was taken up by many Chinese local governments such as Shanghai and Guangzhou, it is likely that Tianjin might have adopted the method later on.
