Tientsin Shrine

Republic of China

Tianjin Shrine , also known as the Tianjin Japanese Shrine, was a Shinto place of worship located in the modern-era Tianjin Japanese Concession, inside Yamato Park. The shrine was dedicated to Amaterasu-Ōmikami and Emperor Meiji, and its buildings adopted the traditional Japanese Shinmei-zukuri architectural style. It stood at the northwest corner of today's intersection of Anshan Road and Shandong Road. In 1945, following Japan's defeat in the war, Tianjin Shrine—regarded as a symbol of the Japanese invasion of China—was demolished.
