BEIJING, July 7 (Xinhua) -- China on Monday held a ceremony to mark the 88th anniversary of the start of the entire nation's resistance against Japanese aggression.
An exhibition themed "For National Liberation and World Peace" was also launched to commemorate the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.
Both the ceremony and the exhibition were held at the Museum of the War of Chinese People's Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, located near the Lugou Bridge -- also known as the Marco Polo Bridge -- where Japanese troops attacked Chinese forces on July 7, 1937, marking the beginning of their full-scale invasion of China.
