The Changsha Fire of 1938 (Chinese: 长沙大火), also known as Wenxi Fire (Chinese: 文夕大火), was the greatest human-caused city-wide fire that ever besieged China. It happened in 1938 during the Second Sino-Japanese War. The result of this fire made Changsha one of the most damaged cities during World War II, alongside Stalingrad, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
