The plant is located at the site of the Hanyang Arsenal founded by Zhang Zhidong in the late Qing Dynasty, and is now the No.17 factory of the "Hanyangzao" Cultural and Creative Park.
Looking at the historical map, you can see that our site has always been in the southwest corner of the arsenal range: In 1899, relying on the intersection of the two rivers, the pattern of the arsenal began to emerge; From 1930 to 1939, the scale of the arsenal gradually expanded; In 1949, before the “Battle of Crossing the Yangtze River”, the arsenal was dismantled; Since 1951, the parrot tape factory was built on the southwest corner of the original site, and gradually filled the entire area; Since 2012, all the factories have been moved away, and the remaining factories have been rented out successively for other uses.
The previous owner of No.17 factory was a wedding photographer, which painted the entire building white inside and out. Through continuous demolition, washing, polishing, and filling... we gradually restored it to its original appearance: red brick walls + wooden roof structure. On this basis, new functions began to be integrated.
