三江口是中国最古老的港口之——宁波港的所在地。1842年鸦片战争后,清政府签订了丧权辱国的《南京条约》,宁波港作为第一批条约口岸,被迫向西方列强开放。1850年,宁波江北岸一带被强行圈划一大片土地,作为“外国人居留地和商埠区”。于是,三江口特别是江北岸外滩一带,领事馆、外商洋行、银行、报馆、教堂、巡捕房及石库门建筑等云集,建筑风格呈现中西合璧的特征,生活方式混杂着东方的韵致和西方的浪漫,形成了有别于传统中国社会的文化现象,是近代宁波港口城市的缩影。而随着开埠逐渐盛行的宁波近代建筑代表着宁波近代城市化的开端,是近代宁波地区的主要住宅之一,在宁波近代建筑史上具有重要价值。 Sanjiangkou is China’s oldest port - the seat of Ningbo Port. After the Opium War in 1842, the Qing government signed the Treaty of Nanjing, which was humiliated and humiliated. The port of Ningbo was forced to open to the Western powers as the first treaty port. In 1850, a large area of ​​land was forcibly circled in the north bank of Ningbo River as a “foreigner’s residence and commercial port area”. As a result, the Sanjiang estuary, especially the Bund along the Jiangbei coast, consulates, foreign merchants, banks, newspapers, churches, patrol rooms and Shikumen buildings gathered. The architectural style is characterized by a combination of Chinese and Western lifestyles mixed with Oriental charm and Western romance , Has formed a cultural phenomenon different from that of traditional Chinese society and is a microcosm of modern Ningbo port city. With the gradually prevailing port of Ningbo, Ningbo Modern Architecture represents the beginning of modern urbanization in Ningbo. It is one of the major residential areas in modern Ningbo and has an important value in the history of modern architecture in Ningbo.
