Old photos of Liaoning: 1930 old photos of Fengtian (now Shenyang).

Fengtian is located in the throat of the three northeastern provinces, and has a superior geographical position. It is surrounded by rich resources such as Anshan Iron Mine, Fushun and Benxi Coal Mine. Such a unique geographical location and superior industrial development conditions have already made the Japanese salivate.

From 1906, after the Russo-Japanese War, Japan Nanman Railway Co., Ltd. began to build the "Fengtian Subsidiary of Nanman Railway". 1909, Manchuria Railway built "Fengtian Station" (now Shenyang Railway Station) and built three radial streets centered on "Fengtian Station" in an attempt to permanently occupy Shenyang as a base for all-round aggression against China.

This set of photos was taken in the 1930s, from which we can get a glimpse of the old days.
