A cruise ship registered in Liberia docked at a port in Tianjin on Saturday, becoming the first international cruise ship received by the Tianjin port over the past three years.
The cruise ship, Dream, is 261 meters long and 40 meters wide, and has a gross tonnage of 77,500 tonnes. It can accommodate over 2,000 passengers with more than 1,000 cabins.
To ensure the efficient berthing of the ship, local authorities helped more than 60 Chinese and foreign crew members fulfill all the formalities online for entering the port.
Tianjin has long been a cruise ship hub in north China. The coming of the Liberian cruise ship marked the post-COVID recovery of the city's cruise tourism sector.
