Former Continental Bank Building in Tianjin, Bank building in Heping District, Tianjin, China.

The Former Continental Bank Building combines Asian and European architectural elements through its tall windows, stone facade, and decorative patterns spanning multiple floors.

The Continental Bank, established in 1919 by Feng Guozhang and Tan Lisun, operated from this building until 1942 before relocating its headquarters to Shanghai.

The structure represents the architectural transformation of Tianjin during the early 20th century, when the city emerged as a major international trading center.

The Former Continental Bank Building maintains regular visiting hours from Tuesday to Sunday, with guided tours available in multiple languages upon advance reservation.

The building belongs to the Four Northern Banks group, which controlled the largest portion of commercial banking activities in Northern China during the 1920s.
