Li Zhuang, a small town located downstream from Yibin on the southern bank of the Yangtze River, is a place that many people are now unaware of. However, during the resistance against Japanese aggression in China, this town was renowned as one of the 'Four Cultural Centers' alongside Chengdu, Chongqing, and Kunming. Whether domestic or overseas, simply writing 'Li Zhuang, China' on letters and telegrams ensured their prompt delivery. Prominent cultural institutions such as the Institute of History and Philology and the Institute of Social Sciences of the Central Research Academy, the Society of Architectural Education, Tongji University, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences regarded Li Zhuang as a haven. The local gentry and residents of Li Zhuang embraced their fellow countrymen with open hearts and genuine emotions, thus preserving the roots of Chinese culture and the spark of knowledge. During that time, Li Zhuang can be described as a 'reflection of Chinese culture and a nurturing ground for national spirit.'
