Olympic sports equipments historical changed are shown by real object’s contrast and people can feel the sports atmosphere and learns Olympic cultures by various equipment.

Tianjin Olympic Museum is the first Olympic museum in Tianjin City and the 2nd one in China. In the future, there will be 9 different types of exhibition halls around it, which will then form an art area and create a better cultural atmosphere for the Seashore new district.

Mr. Chingkuo Wu, the International Olympic Committee member and the president of International Boxing union, said that Nankai University was the birthplace of Chinese Olympic movement, and that president Zhang Boling was the founder of Olympic movement in China. It was because of the deep tie among Nankai, Tianjin and the Olympics that Mr. Wu chose to build the Olympic Museum in Tianjin. He suggested making the most of this valuable resource and developing a tourism route to attract Olympic fans to "pilgrimage."
