Related background history of Harbin Madill Hotel

190 1 year, the middle east railway was temporarily opened to traffic, and the economic and cultural exchanges between Europe and Asia were closer. It was also in this year that Yue Se Kass, a Russian Jew, came to Harbin. At first, he opened a small shop to repair clocks and watches, and soon he managed silverware and jewelry, making a lot of profits. At that time, the central street in the road had just formed, and there were no decent buildings. However, Yue Se Caspar predicted that Harbin will be the largest international city in the Far East in the future, and the hotel industry will have a bright future. Therefore, Yue Se kasper raised funds in various ways, hired first-class architects and purchased first-class building materials from European and American countries, and built the most luxurious Madill Hotel in the Far East at 1906. It is the first foreign-related hotel in Harbin. Madill is a well-shaped building, so the other three gates have also become the focus of design. The courtyard gate on the south side is two symmetrical cast iron gates, decorated with curves of various plant forms, some are blooming stamens, some are budding buds, some are green leaves against safflower, and some are winding vines, showing the unique curves and lines of Art Nouveau.

Why is Mandy Hotel called Mandy from the beginning? A good shop must have a good name. A good name makes a store shine. Yue Se kasper is ambitious and attaches great importance to the name of his shop. This Louis XIV-style three-story building is elegant and luxurious, and its style is popular in European countries at the end of 19 and the beginning of the 20th century. It is regarded as the innovation of traditional architectural style and the pursuit of natural and quaint artistic effects, and is called the Art Nouveau Movement. Russian Le Eugenilov specialized in architecture at the University of Paris in his early years. 190 1 year, he was frustrated in Moscow, wandering alone in Harbin, and hit it off with old Caspar. Harbin, a new continent in this century, provides a stage for Ale Eugene Love to display his ambition and talent. He designed Mattel's extraordinary works with genius. Russian is collectively called модерн, which means modern, fashionable, fashionable and modern. Madill's transliteration is the same as the architectural style. Yue Se kasper proudly said: Matthew will be romantic for a hundred years! Today's Madill Hotel, just like the meaning of this name, is brand-new in the tide of reform and opening up, leading the coquettish era!
