Koreans get together to make a "pilgrimage" to Shanghai! The former site of the interim government o

Recently, according to Yonhap news agency, after Japan adopted export control measures against South Korea, the tension between South Korea and Japan escalated. South Koreans boycotted tourism to Japan, and many tourists went to Shanghai where Anti Japanese ruins were piled up.

The former site of the interim government of the Republic of Korea has become the first choice for many tourists to 'make pilgrimages'. It is reported that on the afternoon of the 14th, marking the 74th anniversary of the restoration of the Korean Peninsula, South Korean group tourists took a group photo in front of the former site of the interim government of the Republic of Korea and shouted the slogan: "come on, Republic of Korea!" Yonhap said that this is the holy land of South Korea's Anti Japanese independence movement. At ordinary times, about 700 South Korean tourists of all ages visit here every day. However, after Japan suddenly launched an "economic provocation" to push South Korea Japan relations to a cliff, the number of visitors often exceeds 1000.

It is reported that the interim government of the Republic of Korea was established in Shanghai in 1919. In 1990, the former site was listed as a district level cultural relics protection unit by Shanghai. Since it was officially opened to the outside world in April 1993, the old site has undergone many repairs and expansion.

On September 4, 2015, then South Korean President Park Geun hye visited Shanghai to participate in the ribbon cutting for the renewal and opening of the pavilion at the former site of the interim government of the Republic of Korea.
