Extended data:

1843 after the opening of Shanghai, foreign missionaries and overseas Chinese businessmen came to Shanghai one after another, illegally encroaching on local land and occupying the first concession in China's modern history-the British concession. A number of western-style houses with brick and wood structures have been built on the Bund for foreigners to live and do business. At that time, they were called "coupon gallery" houses.

In order to prevent disputes between China and foreign countries, it was stipulated at that time that China residents were not allowed to live in the concession. /kloc-at the end of 0/9, garden houses for living began to appear in Shanghai, both built by foreigners and lived by foreigners.

After the First World War, with the recovery of the world economy, the increasing prosperity of Shanghai's industry and commerce, the development of building materials and the progress of engineering technology, independent garden houses with various western architectural styles were introduced into the Shanghai Concession, and the wealthy classes in China followed suit (which has continued to this day), making the construction of Shanghai garden houses enter a peak period.

At present, most of the old garden houses in Shanghai were built in the 1920s and 1930s. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, few people spent huge sums of money to build garden houses. Only a few tycoons turned to invest in building garden houses in view of market inflation, which brought the construction of modern garden houses in Shanghai to an end.
