Remembering a Jewish haven

By Zhou Wenting | China Daily | Updated: 2014-04-03 08:21

Refugees who came to Shanghai to escape wartime persecution in Europe recently returned to the city to celebrate and give thanks, Zhou Wenting reports.

Chaya Walkin Small always wears two ornaments around her neck: a pair of 70-year-old gold cufflinks and a silver medal that she got nine months ago.

The Jewish woman born in Poland 80 years ago, who took refuge with her parents and siblings in Shanghai during World War II, says her father got the cufflinks from another Jewish refugee in Shanghai seven decades ago when the war was over.
