Abstract

The article is dedicated to the work of the Russian engineer in China, Yuliy Petrovich Zhdanov. The article describes the objects in which consular offices were located, namely: the Dutch consulate in the Chistyakov mansion, the Japanese consulate in the building of the Harbin branch of the South Manchurian Railway, as well as the Portuguese consulate in the Skidelsky mansion and the residence of the Consul General of Japan, which, according to some data, belonged to his authorship. An analysis of the space planning and stylistic features of these buildings is presented. A short excursus to the history of the development of consular offices in Manchuria is given. The stages of Russia's presence in the Far East and its influence are traced. The results obtained are the basis for further research into the work of Russian architects in the cities of Manchuria (Northeast China) during the first half of the 20th century.
