Located in Tianjin Pilot Free Trade Zone, the Binhai New Area Cultural Center is a comprehensive facility that combines a library, a show center, an exploration hall, a citizen activity center and a cultural corridor. The external architecture of the cultural center is eye catching and, in a word, astonishing.

In the library, the most prominent feature is the spherical multi-functional hall. The outside of the hall is covered with 400,000 LED lights and the interior is perfectly designed to play movies. That is why the library is also called "The Eye of Binhai". Inside, the hall can hold lectures and seat up to 200 people. The library has 1500 seats in its reading area and its collection is expected to reach 1,350,000 books. The book collection includes both paper and digital editions and can meet people's needs for reading around the clock. Book sales and events such as book signings and reading salons will be regularly held in this part of the library.
