Hi there. Does anybody know the names of the 11 ports opened up by the treaty of Tianjin in 1858?

Google does.

I spent a few hours on google before coming on here. No dice. Please share a URL with me if you have found one. Thanks

Assuming you are not in the PRC, go to Google and search for;

Treaty Of Tianjin 1858 “Ports”

You’ll find what you need there.

The German Wikipedia[/url]"]Er verpflichtete China insbesondere zu einer weiteren Öffnung des Reiches für den Handel mit den ausländischen Mächten, insbesondere England. Während er bisher ausschließlich über die Häfen in Fuzhou, Kanton, Ningbo, Shanghai und Xiamen (Amoy) abgewickelt wurde, sollten künftig jene in Dengzhou, Hankou, Jiujiang, Kaohsiung, Kiungchow, Nanking, Niuchuang, Shantou, Tanshui und Zhenjiang genutzt werden dürfen.

(emphasis is mine)

Those ten, plus of course Tianjin, are the eleven you are looking for. For the names I didn’t recognise, Kiungchow is apparently Qiongzhou on Hainan island and Niuchuang (Niuzhuang) is the old name for Yingkou in Liaoning province.
