Although Tianjin is a municipality directly under the central government, its development has been relatively slow in recent years. In 2022, Tianjin achieved a regional GDP of 1.63 trillion, which has fallen out of the national top 10, which does not match the scale of Tianjin. In 2022, Nanjing's GDP was 1.69 trillion yuan, surpassing Tianjin, ranking 10 nationwide. It can be seen that the development of Nanjing is excellent.
Compared with Tianjin, Nanjing is more livable, with profound cultural heritage and excellent ecological environment. Although Tianjin is rich in tourism resources, the Eye of Tianjin, Panshan Mountain and Tianjin Ancient Culture Street are representative scenic spots in Tianjin, but Nanjing, as the "ancient capital of the Six Dynasties", is more attractive to tourists. Nanjing's Confucius Temple, Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, Ming Mausoleum, Qinhuai River, Jiming Temple, Meiling Palace, gaochun old street and other scenic spots can be said to be famous brands in Nanjing, full of historical charm.
