The Former Site Of Mengzi Customhouse

As the earliest official customhouse established in Yunnan Province,
Mengzi Customhouse is located by the Nanhu Lake of Mengzi County,
Honghe Prefecture. The surviving buildings were the former sites of
 the Customhouse and the Tariff Department of Mengzi both opened in
Guangxu Reign of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Major historical and
 cultural sites nearby include the Mansion of French Consulate, gardens,
 and the Geluz Firm, all of which are in French architectural style.
