Yien Yieh Commercial Bank Site, Heritage bank building in Tianjin, China.

The Yien Yieh Commercial Bank building displays intricate architectural details across its exterior facade and features traditional banking hall configurations inside.

Established in 1915 by Zhang Zhenfang, the bank specialized in financing salt industry operations and became one of the four major northern banks in 1920s China.

The structure incorporates design elements from Chinese and international architectural traditions, reflecting the multicultural influences in early 20th century Tianjin.

The building stands at coordinates 39°07'43.03"N and 117°12'13.43"E, near the former French concession area of central Tianjin.

The bank merged into Bank of China Hong Kong in 2001, marking the end of its specialized role in salt industry financing after 86 years of operations.
