Yang Qianghua, who lives in Germany, is one of the hundreds of overseas Chinese invited to attend the event.
He says the younger generation tends to forget the sacrifices made during the war.
"Seventy years ago, our older generation, including those overseas, made huge sacrifices and great contributions to national independence and liberation, as well as to world peace and justice. We should cherish the memory of the revolutionary martyrs 1 and their fight for world peace, and never forget history. So I think this commemoration is very significant."
Liu Hao is a former Chinese soldier now living in Brazil.
He says he's excited to see China's new military hardware.
"I just feel so honored and excited to have the opportunity to attend the parade. The range of new weapons that will be shown at the parade is very exciting. It's a very proud feeling that we as overseas Chinese can witness the improvement in our country's military might."
At the same time, a memorial hall has opened in San Francisco mark the end of the War in the Pacific which also includes a section about the war in China.
It includes numerous displays, including weapons, photos and sculptures highlighting both the horrors and heroism 2 of the battles in the Pacific theatre.
Florence Fang 3 is the curator of the Chinese section of the memorial hall.
"I believe the memorial hall serves as an international platform to tell Chinese stories of the war to the world. It tells the heroic stories of eight years of war against Japanese aggression 4 and our contributions to the World War II in those eight years."
Tens of thousands of overseas Chinese have also held various events to commemorate 5 the 70th anniversary of the end of the war.
In the US city of Chicago, the Chinese community has put on a concert at Chicago Symphony Hall to mark 70th anniversary.
In Vancouver, Canada, Chinese-Canadians, dignitaries and members of the Canadian Forces have also gathered to commemorate the end of World War II.
