This is a group of old photos of Ningbo around 1876. Let’s have a look at the real scene of Ningbo, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River in the late Qing Dynasty
The photographer (collector) of this group of photos is Edward· Bondru. He worked in China from 1868 to 1908 and served as the customs directors of Fuzhou and Ningbo. During this period, I took these precious photos around 1877
This group is the second group of photos. The first group of photos is shown in: http://www.laozhaopian5.com/qingchao/1858.html
ps: The note below the photo is a simple translation of the English note
