The city was said to be divided in seven sectors which differ in terms of landscaping and programmatic offerings. A Lifescape, an Eco-Valley, a Solarscape, an Urbanscape, a Windscape, an Earthscape and Eco-Corridors.

Tianjin Eco-City is just a 10-minute drive from the business parks at the Tianjin Economic-Development Area. It was situated 150km from the Chinese capital of Beijing and 45km from Tianjin City.

The Eco-Valley, an 11-kilometer long man-made channel. Serving as a transit corridor from which a light rail transit system operates, allowing residents to easily commute within the site, as well as connect to neighbouring townships and surrounding developments.
