Garden of Perfect Brightness — Yuanmingyuan

TJ; studied about this sad event in college; never forgot about it...brings tears to ones eyes.

It is like the burning of the Library of Alexandria or the looting and burning of all the Mayan books; only this to me is even sadder.

So many sad moments in history and all in the name of what; greed!

Let us all teach our young...

Britain has yet to give Greece back what it stole and should; also agree; everything looted should be returned to China; zero questions about that fact...

And let us also hope all the loot stolen by Central Banks and Cartels shall also be returned to the people!

This article came out just this week!

China Remembers a Vast Crime

BEIJING — In early October of 1860, the commanders of the British and French forces waging war on Qing Dynasty China held a tense conference outside the gates of the Garden of Perfect Brightness — Yuanmingyuan — on the western outskirts of Beijing.

I have great respect for China; its 5000 years of history is the most interesting to study of any; rich and full of wonder!
