Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of Russian architecture in the territory of the modern city of Changchun (People’s Republic of China). In total, two large centers were identified: the Kuanchenzi station and the “Trade Port” area, a complex of buildings of the Russian-Chinese bank and two sidings. Most of the work is devoted to the formation of the architectural and planning image of the Kuanchenzi station and the factors that influenced the development process. The phenomenon of this station itself is unique within the framework of both the South Manchurian Railway and the CER. Contemporaries have repeatedly noted the high economic and social significance of this place, but it did not receive development either during the construction of the South Manchurian Railway or after the Russo-Japanese War.
