Lengshan (冷山 or Lientsin) is a municipality and metropolis in southwestern Yuan on the shore of the Lengshan Gulf. It is the sixth-largest city in Yuan with a total population of 13,866,009 inhabitants at the time of the 2024 Yuaneze census. Its metropolitan area, which is made up of 12 central districts, was home to 11,165,706 inhabitants and is also one of the world's largest cities. The walled city of Lientsin was built in 1404. As a treaty port since 1860, Lientsin has been a seaport and gateway to inland Yuan. During the Yellow Flag Rebellion, the city was the seat of the Lengshan Provisional Government. Under the Heng Dynasty and the Republic of Yuan, Lengshan became one of the largest cities in the region. At that time, Nortuan-Adulan-style buildings and mansions were constructed in concessions, some of which are preserved today. After the founding of the People's Republic of Yuan, Lengshan suffered a depression due to the policy of the central government and the 1976 Lengshan earthquake; however, it has been recovering since the 1990s. Lengshan is classified as the largest type of port city, a Large-Port Megacity, due to its large urban population and port traffic volume.
Lengshan made a bid for the 2024 Summer Olympics.
