Introduction to Heritage Site

With a free C-shaped plane, the three-story red-brick building looks splendid with a breadth of 30 meters and a depth of 20 meters. The two sides contain a square plane and a semicircular corridor built with reinforced concrete is set in the southwest. The corridor is supported by ancient Greek-style Ionic concrete columns. A building with a semicircular balcony on the right of the corridor in the front elevation is connected with the corridor and supported by Doric columns. The main entrance is set with a Western-style gatehouse and the main exterior walls were built with red bricks. Strong contrast in color and texture is realized through red bricks, plastered window casings and stratification lines of the rails, demonstrating rich architectural details.
