Rangoon’s General Hospital – around 1905
Posted: March 11th, 2014 | 1 Comment »Following yesterday’s Rangoon skyline view, another postcard. I’m not quite sure the date of this postcard but suspect it’s from the early years of the twentieth century as Rangoon’s General Hospital (now the Yangon General Hospital) was completed in 1899 and finally opened for business in 1905. The hospital was expanded somewhat after World War Two and had new wings added in the mid-sixties.
and the hospital today…
Hi Paul. I really like your Rangoon General Hospital postcard and was wondering if I could use it in a document about the charity renovating the building. It would be a great historical picture of it in its early glory days.
