A Lantern Festival reception was held in the Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum on February 26, gathering people engaged in friendly exchanges between China and foreign countries.
Located on the site of the former Ohel Moshe Synagogue built in 1927 in Shanghai’s Hongkou district, the museum is the only one in China that documents Jewish refugees’ life in Shanghai during World War II when few countries were willing to accept them.
Since it was established in 2007, the museum has been promoting cultural exchanges between China and the world. Currently, the virtual exhibition hall of the museum had been launched on the website of Chicago Sister Cities International.
