War-themed exhibition opens

An exhibition about China’s role in the latter stages of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) opened on Saturday in Beijing to mark the 81st anniversary of the start of China’s comprehensive defense against the invaders. More than 120 photos and 281 objects are on show at the Museum of the War of Chinese Peoples’ Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. An audiovisual presentation explains items in the exhibition. Songs about China’s defense against the Japanese can be played, and letters written by 32 heroes to loved ones at home can be read by scanning a WeChat QR code. The exhibition will run until March.
