The Chinese port of Tianjin is expecting its newly-opened Tianjin International Cruise Home Port to handle a total of 300,000 cruise passengers between 2010 and 2015, according to forecasts by local government.

The region invested $191 million in building the cruise terminal at the south end of Dongjiang Bonded Port Area in 2008.

The first phase of the terminal became operational in June of this year, according to Tianjin Tourism Bureau.

The new terminal has received 22 cruise ships, with 60,000 inbound and outbound passengers, to date. According to the tourism bureau, the port expects to receive a total of 100 vessels by 2015, with an estimated 300,000 passengers.

In further expansion plans, the bureau has also stated that it would be stepping up development of the Home Port by building a yacht harbour.
