Kuliang, located on the outskirts of Fuzhou, was once a summer resort for foreigners in the early 20th century. Since 1886, people from more than 20 countries, including Britain, France and the United States, began to build villas in Yixia village in Kuliang to spend the summer.

Facilities such as a post office, tennis courts and swimming pools were also built at that time, forming a community where locals and expats lived in harmony.
