Introduction to the former site of the British Consulate: The former site of the British Consulate is located on Maxian Mountain. After the Five Ports opened trade, the British established the British Consulate in Cangshan, Fuzhou, and built several buildings on Maxian Mountain as a symbol of British colonists and sailors. Club, due to the rise and rapid expansion of the Fujian Shipbuilding Administration, the British hung a sign "British Consulate Branch" on a building to monitor the activities of the Fujian Shipbuilding Administration in an attempt to take advantage of the opportunity. This incident angered the then Shipping Minister Shen Baozhen, for the sake of national interests, spent a lot of money to buy back the property rights of the consular branch and the surrounding land in 1877.
