鼠疫场遗址

The plague site in Ningbo is the remnant of a center where patients were treated and isolated during disease outbreaks. The grounds contain original structures, medical spaces, and written records that document how people managed cases and prevented spread during health emergencies.

The site was established centuries ago to respond to multiple plague outbreaks that struck the Ningbo region during that era. It became a place where early disease control methods were tested and refined, shaping how communities later handled health emergencies.

The site reveals how communities developed responses to disease outbreaks through practical medical responses and social organization. You can see how people organized themselves during health crises and what methods they relied on to protect their families and neighbors.

The site is accessible to visitors, and walking with a guide helps you understand the different areas and their specific functions. Wear comfortable shoes since the grounds may have uneven terrain and you will be exploring multiple structures and spaces.

The site contains separate zones that show how quarantine concepts were developed and practiced here centuries before they became standard in Western medicine. This physical separation reveals early practical thinking about stopping disease transmission that influenced medical practices far beyond this region.
