Street Museum of Lihuangpi Road

Lihuangpi road is located in Hankou, Wuhan City, Hubei Province, with a total length of 604 meters. It was built by Huangpi people in 1900 (26th year of Guangxu), so it is called Huangpi Road. Its predecessor was Yima street in the Russian concession. Because Li Yuanhong, the two presidents of the Republic of China, was born in Huangpi and was called Li Huangpi, this road was renamed Li Huangpi Road in 1946. In 1997, Jiang'an District Government of Wuhan city established it as a street Museum for protection.

After Hankou was opened as a port in 1861, the great powers poured in one after another. In the area of 2.46 square kilometers around Lihuangpi Road (Yima Street), the concession of Britain, France, Russia, Germany and Japan was divided, 12 foreign consulates, nearly 30 foreign financial institutions and more than 100 foreign firms were established. Hankou presented a group of abnormal prosperity with colonial color and became the "Oriental Chicago" that colonists were happy to forget to return. Lihuangpi Road, located in the center of the concession, is the epitome of this humiliating history.

Today, the street Museum of Lihuangpi road includes 17 ancient buildings, with steles on the street and at the end of the street.

Development history

Hankou Concession remains in Jiangan district from 1860s to the first half of the 20th century.

Concession is the area that the Western colonial powers forced the semi colonial countries to "rent" them at the trading ports according to the unequal treaties. During the 37 years from 1861 to 1898, Britain, Germany, Russia, France and Japan set up concessions in Hankou.

The people's Government of Jiang'an District renovated the Lihuangpi road in the Russian concession and set up the "street Museum", which means the city

The city's development, cultural landscape and even revolutionary traditional education provide practical and deep historical reference, so as to make it play the role of "preserving history, governing by capital and educating".

The buildings with special historical and exotic style are displayed on the street as exhibits, so they are called "street Museum".

Since 1861, Britain, Germany, Russia, France, Japan and other countries have set up concessions in Hankou for more than 80 years. In 1897, this section of road was established as a Russian concession.

Before 1925, it was called alexev street and Yima street; because Li Yuanhong, the two presidents of the Republic of China, was born in Huangpi, Wuhan, it was renamed "Li Huangpi Road" in 1946. The road is 604 meters long, with stories behind 16 European buildings. Gothic and Rococo are the main styles. In the past, Daosheng bank was the former residence of Soong Ching Ling, and the "August 7th" meeting site was adjacent to this road.
