Exhibition marks 75th year since recovery of Taiwan

An exhibition commemorating the 75th anniversary of the recovery of Taiwan by the motherland opened on Sunday at the National Museum of China in Beijing.

Some 160 exhibits that record Taiwan's resistance to Japanese rule are on display to commemorate the liberation of Taiwan, the end of Japan's rule over Taiwan and the Penghu islands and the return of Taiwan to the motherland on Oct 25, 1945, the museum said.

Many of the exhibits are on public display for the first time, including some documents from the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), detailing its garrison in Penghu from 1886 to 1891, the museum said.
