Site of China & South Sea Bank Nanjing Branch, Historical bank building in Nanjing, China
The China & South Sea Bank Nanjing Branch stands at 155 Baixia Lu, featuring a two-tone exterior and a central bell tower above the entrance hall.
The bank, founded in 1921 by Indonesian Chinese entrepreneurs Huang Yizhu and Xu Jingren, operated until 1951 when the government nationalized its mainland assets.
The building combines European and American architectural elements across 1,986 square meters, representing the financial modernization of China in the 1930s.
The former bank building sits near the visa office, across Taiping Nan Lu, making it easily accessible for visitors exploring Nanjing's historical architecture.
The structure transformed from a bank to government ministries, then to Chaoyang Hotel, before becoming a Bank of Communications branch in 1987.
