The Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall stands as a poignant testament to the atrocities committed during the Second Sino-Japanese War. More than 300,000 civilians were brutally killed. The Memorial Hall was built over the place where over 100,000 victims were hastily buried. The infamous events are preserved by photos, objects, and videos of survivors' testimony — a somber reminder of the absolute importance of peace.

The Yuejiang Tower in Nanjing boasts a unique history, having achieved fame centuries before its actual construction. In 1374, the first Emperor of the Ming Dynasty envisioned a tower by the Yangtze River, naming it Yuejiang (literally meaning "overlooking the river"). He commissioned authors across the country to write articles praising the magnificent tower, even though it was not yet built. One of these articles became a classic, but the tower's construction was not started until 2000. The reputation of the Yuejiang Tower preceded its actual existence by 650 years.
