Lunghua Civil Assembly Centre was one of the internment camps established by the Empire of Japan in Shanghai for European and American citizens, who had been resident under Japanese occupation since December 1941. Many had formerly lived in Shanghai within the Shanghai International Settlement before its occupation by the Imperial Japanese Army (IJA).
British author J. G. Ballard was interned in the camp as an adolescent. His experiences there inspired the semi-auto biographical novel Empire of the Sun, which inspired the 1987 motion picture.[1]
