CHANGCHUN

春長 Chang chtun or Kwanchengtze

This town owes its modern importance to the fact that it is situated at the junction of the South Manchuria Railway (Japanese) with the southern branch (from Harbin) of the Chinese Eastern Railway, while another Rail- way connects it with the city of Kirin, the capital of the Province of that name, about 80 miles, distant, nearly due East.

Changchun was opened to Internationa! Trade by Agreement with Japan in 1915. There is here a large Japanese Railway Settlement, admirably laid out, north of the old Town, from which it is separated by the area laid out by the Chinese Authorities as a commercial quarter. North of the Japanese Railway Settlement lies the town that has grown up around what is now the southern terminus of the Chinese Eastern Railway.

The country surrounding Changchun is a vast and exceedingly fertile plain, the produce from which is distributed North, South and East by the divergent Railways
