In April 1877, the British diplomat Chaloner Alabaster came to Wenzhou and served as the first British consul in Wenzhou. While working, he took some old photos of Wenzhou. It can be said that the earliest photos of Wenzhou were taken by him
There is no accurate figure about how many photos he took in Wenzhou. Xiao Bian has collected some of them and released them now. These photos should have been taken from 1877 to 1900
If you have any other photos taken by him, welcome to exchange and discuss
