4/6/2007 SuZhou苏州@NanJing南京

The Rape of Nanking: An Undeniable History in Photographs tells the story in words and more than 400 photographs of the Japanese invasion of China and the sacking of its capital city, Nanking, in 1937-38.
Between December 1937 and March 1938 at least 369,366 Chinese civilians and prisoners of war were slaughtered by the invading troops. An estimated 80,000 women and girls were raped; many of them were then mutilated or murdered.
so when i went to Nangjing, i feel weird, feel down and scary, when i imagine i was in that war, what a panic town...
马屁碑,Tablet Pavilion called Si Fang Cheng

Why is the tablet called 马屁碑 arh?

The room cost RM400? China is no longer a cheap place, huh?

The river photo looks OK. I thought you said your night photos are blurred? (But I don't see the river...)
