At 4.30 pm on 29th Nov 2011, Lei Yue Mun Hotel in Hangu, Binhai New Area was opened. Making the most of this opportunity, a yacht show and a Taiwan appreciation week were held by the China-Australia Royal Yacht City, and hosted by the Binhai economic area management committee. Attendees included He Lifeng, Deputy Secretary of Tianjin Municipal Party and Secretary of Binhai New Area; Zong Guoying, Deputy Secretary of Binhai New Area, and other dignitaries.
As a priority project and one of the so-called “Ten Battles” in Binhai, Sino-Australia Royal Yacht City will focus on making yachting and tourism a model for northern China. It will become a modern service program with an international yacht wharf, integrating tourist, leisure and living functions. Projects under construction include a yacht club, yacht berths and private clubs. Several five-star hotels, 5A level office buildings and deluxe apartments will come into use in next six to eight years.
