The National Commercial Bank, Hangzhou Branch

The National Commercial Bank, Hangzhou Branch, Historic bank building in Hangzhou, China.

The National Commercial Bank Hangzhou Branch building at 261 Zhongshan Middle Road, Yangbatou, is a three-story Western classical building completed in 1923 and designed by Shen Liyuan. Its facade carries carved stone ornament, and the interior preserves the banking hall layout of the period.

Originally established in 1907 by the Zhejiang Railway Company as part of efforts to resist foreign enterprise encroachment, the Zhejiang Xingye Bank became one of China's most powerful commercial banks during the Republic era, ranking among the prestigious 'Southern Three Banks'.

The building is still a working bank: it houses the Yangbatou branch of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. Its address, 261 Zhongshan Middle Road in Shangcheng District, is known locally as Yangbatou, a name tied to the old riverside embankment. The bank's own origin lies in Hangzhou, the city where Zhejiang Xingye Bank was founded.

Currently operating as the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Zhejiang Hangzhou Yangbatou Branch, the building continues to provide modern banking services while maintaining its historical facade and architectural integrity for public appreciation and research.

The building sits at 261 Zhongshan Middle Road in the Yangbatou area of Shangcheng District, a corner of Hangzhou where the 1923 bank branch still serves customers as the Yangbatou sub-branch of ICBC Zhejiang Hangzhou Branch. It was listed as a Zhejiang provincial cultural relic on 29 August 1997, then as a National Key Cultural Relic Protection Unit in March 2013.
