The old photo of Haicheng, Liaoning in 1941. The style of Kuixing Mansion and Stone Mountain 80 years ago in Haicheng

Today, I share with you the old photos of Haicheng, Liaoning Province in 1941, taken by the Japanese in the winter of 1941

Haicheng is subordinate to Anshan City, Liaoning Province. It is located in the hinterland of Liaodong Peninsula, in the Shenyang Economic Zone. To the north, it borders Anshan, the steel capital, and Shenyang, the provincial capital. To the south, it borders Yingkou and Dalian, the coal and iron city of Benxi and the border city of Dandong. To the west, it faces Panjin, the new oil field city across the river

Haicheng belonged to Liaodong Prefecture of Yan State during the Warring States Period. In the Han Dynasty, Xinchang, Liaodui and Anshi were built in the county. During the Three Kingdoms Period, Wei occupied the north, belonged to Pingzhou, and later changed to Youzhou. Four years after the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (404), Yan Guang was divided by Koguryo for more than 260 years

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, he was the governor of Anton City. In Liao Dynasty, the name of Haicheng originated from Haizhou. In the early years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, Haizhou was established as Shandong Province; The state was abolished in the eighth year of Hongwu. In the ninth year of Hongwu’s reign (1376), Haizhou Wei was set up under the command of Liaodong Metropolitan Commander’s Office. In the 10th year of Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty (1653), Haizhou was changed into Haicheng

Haicheng is also the place where Zhang Zuolin made his fortune. Here are the photos of this group, please refer to:

海城宽阔的城墙两边是排列整齐的民居。

海城栏可山，一株峭壁之上的古松，一派生机盎然之气，下方一望无垠的田地，这张照片取景位置绝佳。
