The Japanese War of Aggression against China, prior to and during World War 2, had some truly dark moments. We've previously explored the museum of Unit 731 in Harbin, China, whereas today we learn more about the Nanjing Massacre-- at Memorial Hall of the Victims in Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders, as we travel through the previous capital of China: Nanjing.

The history will leave you speechless. 300,000 killed in a matter of weeks. There is no suffice explanation as to why things like this happen. Learning such dark history can make your faith waver, and you begin to question human nature, and what we are capable of. But, in the end, we think it is important to share these things, in an effort to not have them repeated.
