The 1910 Nanyang industrial exposition (南洋勸業會) or more internationally known as the 1910 Nanking Exposition was a world's fair held in Nanjing, Qing China on June 5, 1910.[1][2]
Name
The Chinese name of the exposition refers to Nanyang, a region that includes Jiangsu, Jiangxi, and Anhui. At the time, these provinces were all under the Viceroy of Liangjiang, so the event was meant to be an exposition of the entire region.[1]
Organization
On December 15, 1908, Duanfang, Viceroy of Liangjiang, and Chen Qitai [zh], Governor of Jiangsu Province, submitted a petition to the Qing Court proposing that China host an international exposition. It was an official fair backed by the Qing government.[3]
A site of about 41 acres near San Pai Lou was established for the exhibition, in Nanjing's Jiangning District.[1] Along a main axis road were several exhibit buildings including the Administration Building, Fine Arts Building, Agriculture Building, Transportation Building, Foreign Exhibits Buildings, and then several buildings for the Chinese Provinces. Exhibits came from all over China as well as Japan, Java, the United States, France, Great Britain, and Germany.[4]
