中英联络处旧址 中英双方曾在这里交换战时情报

Former Site of Sino-British Liaison Office Where China and the UK Exchanged Wartime Intelligence

繁华的解放碑商圈国泰艺术中心旁的一栋黄白相间的西式建筑,已有近百年历史。过去很长的一段时间里,很少有人知道这栋建筑的由来,经过修缮,如今已对外开放。它就是第二次世界大战时的中英联络处。据渝中区第三次全国文物普查成果专辑《母城记忆》显示,1939年至1946年,中英联络处就设于此,抗战期间,建筑曾遭日军空袭破坏。据了解,中英联络处旧址修建于1910年,最早为真元堂,占地近400平方米,建筑面积近1200平方米,由法国人设计的法式风格砖木结构建筑,内部造型十分精美。

Near Guotai Arts Center in the bustling Jie Fangbei business district,a yellow-and-white western-style building has been standing there for nearly 100 years.For a long time in the past,few people knew the origin of this building.After renovation,it has now been opened to the public.It was the Sino-British Liaison Office during the Second World War.According to the Yuzhong District's third national cultural relics survey album"Memory of Mother City",the Sino-British Liaison Office was located here from 1939 to 1946.During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression,the buildings were destroyed by Japanese air strikes.
