The site of Tianjin Zhongshan Park was originally the Siyuan Village of Tianjin salt merchant Zhang Linying. In 1907 (the 33rd year of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty), Zhongshan Park was built. The park starts from Dajing Road (now Zhongshan Road in Hebei District) in the north, ends at Jinzhong River (now filled up) in the south, borders Kunwei Road in the east, and is close to the Beiyang Mint in the west. It covers a total area of more than 90 acres and was originally named "Quanyehuichang". In 1912 (the first year of the Republic of China), it was renamed "Tianjin Park" and soon became "Hebei Park". After the success of the Northern Expedition, the National Government changed the park to its current name in memory of Mr. Sun Yat-sen, and changed the original Dajing Road to the north of the park to Zhongshan Road. On June 9, 1919 (the 8th year of the Republic of China), people from all walks of life in Tianjin held a meeting in Zhongshan Park to support the May Fourth Movement of patriotic students in Beijing, demanding the abolition of the humiliating Twenty-One Demands and the refusal to sign the Treaty of Paris. In 1936 (the 25th year of the Republic of China), Tianjin was occupied by Japan, and the park was renamed "Tianjin Second Park". The name of Zhongshan Park was restored after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Interpretation of Tianjin Zhongshan Park from the perspective of Eastern philosophy From the perspective of Eastern philosophy, Tianjin Zhongshan Park is not only an oasis in the city, but also a space that embodies the concept of "harmony between man and nature". Eastern philosophy, especially Taoism and Confucianism, emphasizes the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. In Zhongshan Park, the carefully designed garden layout, such as winding paths, waterside pavilions, and natural landscapes that change with the seasons, all reflect the pursuit and respect for natural beauty. Every scene in the park, whether it is the quiet lake or the flowerbed with colorful flowers, makes people feel the close connection with nature, reflecting the idea of "conforming to nature and living in harmony with nature" in Eastern philosophy. Interpretation of Tianjin Zhongshan Park from the perspective of Western philosophy From the perspective of Western philosophy, especially from the perspective of existentialism and phenomenology, Tianjin Zhongshan Park provides a place to reflect on the relationship between self and environment. Existentialism emphasizes individual freedom and choice. Every corner and every path in the park provides visitors with space for free exploration and experience, encouraging people to find themselves in nature and think about the meaning of life. Phenomenology focuses on the individual's direct perception of the world. The natural beauty and cultural landscape of Zhongshan Park inspire people's perception of beauty and profound experience of life, allowing people to find a piece of tranquility in the hustle and bustle of daily life and reconnect their inner and outer worlds. Whether it is the "unity of man and nature" in Eastern philosophy or the "self-exploration" in Western philosophy, Tianjin Zhongshan Park, with its unique charm, has become a bridge connecting man and nature, man and self, man and society, reflecting the value and significance of philosophical thinking in daily life.
