I'm living in shanghai, China. It might be several hundred years old. I'm not sure. Because shanghai is only a small villiage at the very beginning, and during several years of development, it become a big city.

people died, lost and some of them are not yet found up to now. some lost their homes, lost their livelihood. people were in the streets, hungry, scared, crying, looking for ways on how to cope up.
