Tianjin Tianhou Palace, also known as Tianfei Palace, is commonly known as "Niangniang Palace". Located outside the east gate of the ancient city of Tianjin, it was built in the Yuan Dynasty. It is the oldest ancient architectural complex in Tianjin and one of the earliest Mazu Tempel in China.

Tianjin Tianhou Palace was originally a place where sailors offered sacrifices to Poseidon and held performances and parties to repay God. Later, with the development of the times, it became the birthplace of Tianjin folk culture and a historical witness of Tianjin's development.

"Tianhou Palace comes first, then Tianjinwei" is a popular and vivid summary of Tianhou Palace's historical position in Tianjin.
