TALIENWAN

Ta-lien.wan

Talienwan is a bay to the North-east of Port Arthur on the Liaotung Peninsula. It was acquiared on lease from China by Russia in 1898 and a free port is to be established, which will be connected by the Manchurian Railway with the Trans- Siberian Railway, of which latter it will in reality be the principal terminus. Talien- wan is an open bay, some six miles wide and six deep, and open to the easterly winds. It was in Victory Bay, an inlet of Talienwan, that the British fleet and transports anchored during the hostilities with China in 1860.

PORT ARTHUR

順旅 Lu-shun

Port Arthur, at the point of the "Regent's sword," or Liaotung Peninsula, was formerly China's chief naval arsenal, but, was captured in the Japanese war and its defences and military works destroyed. In 1898 Russia obtained a lease of Port Arthur and Talienwan and is now rapidly fortifying the former and making it into a great naval stronghold. It will be connected by the Manchurian Railway with the Trans-Siberian Line.
