About Tianjin Wenmiao Museum

The Tianjin Confucian Temple Museum is located at No. 2 Dongmen Nei Street, Dongma Road, Nankai District, Tianjin. It was a temple where local officials in Tianjin during the Ming and Qing dynasties worshiped Confucius. It is also the location of the Tianjin Academy and is now a municipal cultural relic protection unit. The complex was built in the first year of Zhengtong in the Ming Dynasty (1436). It consists of the side-by-side government temples, county temples and Minglun Hall. It covers an area of about 12,000 square meters. There are existing Ming and Qing style buildings such as Lingxing Gate and Dacheng Hall. It is the largest and best-preserved Ming and Qing architectural complex in Tianjin. It is also the only existing ancient building complex in my country that combines prefectures and counties.
