#100 Shanghai Architecture Series in Russian: Municipal Gaol


Article in Russian / Google Translate of the article.

PS. While reading the Budgets of the International Settlement I came across a mention of a British woman who was serving life sentence in the Municipal Gaol; she was transferred to England in 1935. I wonder what her crime was.
