Abstract

The article analyses the choice of objects for consular offices according to five periods of time. The main problems that arose during the appearance of the first consular institutions are shown. The political and economic patterns of development of consular institutions are determined. The analysis of the collected materials made it possible to identify three types of consular objects. This gave an opportunity to form a more complete picture of the consular facilities in Manchuria. The authors give a brief overview of the consular offices and architects who were involved in the design of this type of objects, as well as the buildings that were adapted to accommodate consular offices in Manchukuo. The article also highlights the features of the work of the consular service and provides information on the specifics of the selection of sites for construction of consular offices.
