Crowds visit Nanjing Massacre hall, donate to survivors, comfort women

Thousands of visitors donated money to help the survivors of the Nanjing Massacre and to so-called comfort women in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, during the Tomb Sweeping Day holiday.

After donating money by scanning a QR code provided by staff members at the Memorial Hall for the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders, visitors received white chrysanthemums to commemorate the dead.

The term comfort women refers to women and girls who were forced to provide sex to the Japanese army during the country's military invasions of the 20th century.
