The Main Building of the British Country Club
The Main Building of the British Country Club is situated at No. 188 Machang Road, Hexi District, Tianjin. Constructed in 1925, it was designed and built by the British. The main building is a three-story brick-and-wood structure with a simplified classical architectural style. Its walls are made of red bricks, featuring square pilasters and brick square columns supporting the porch, which has an iron-railed balcony. The interior boasts exquisite craftsmanship and comprehensive facilities, including a restaurant, tea room, billiard room, swimming pool, and a grand ballroom with a sprung floor. The grounds feature tennis courts, an outdoor roller-skating rink, a large theater, and a restaurant. The inner courtyard houses the antique-style garden "Yanyuan." It now serves as the Tianjin Cadres' Club.
