Five Great Avenues Historical and Cultural Block in Tianjin refers to a rectangular area located south of Chengdu Road, north of Machang Road, east of Xikang Road, and west of the intersection of Machang Road and Nanjing Road in Heping District, Tianjin. It has a total of 22 roads with a total length of 17 kilometers and a total area of 1.28 square kilometers. Historically, it was once the "outside extended area" of the British concession, with low-lying land that was later filled in. Architects from various countries built houses here one after another. Since the 1960s, Tianjin's urban construction department has collectively referred to the east-west roads in this area, including Chengdu Road, Chongqing Road, Changde Road, Dali Road, Munan Road, and Machang Road, as the Five Great Avenues Historical and Cultural Block area for unified management. Today, Five Great Avenues Historical and Cultural Block has become synonymous with small Western-style buildings in Tianjin.
