EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful photo print, we witness a solemn moment as a Chinese visitor explores the haunting ruins of the live-human frostbite laboratory building at the infamous Japanese germ warfare center known as Unit 731. Located in the southern region of Harbin, capital of China's Heilongjiang province, this site holds deep historical significance. Captured by Jason Lee on April 24,2005, this image serves as a reminder of humanity's darkest chapters. China has taken steps to preserve and honor its painful past by seeking UNESCO World Heritage protection for these ruins. Once home to laboratories, prisons, and crematoria, this place was notorious for conducting heinous experiments on human subjects during World War Two. The aim was to develop deadly germ weapons like bubonic plague, typhoid fever, anthrax, and cholera. As our gaze falls upon the visitor standing amidst crumbling walls that once witnessed unimaginable suffering and despair, we are reminded of the resilience and strength displayed by those who survived such atrocities. This photograph encapsulates both sorrow and hope—a testament to mankind's capacity for healing wounds inflicted by history. Through preserving these ruins as a heritage site under UNESCO's guardianship, China aims not only to honor the victims but also to ensure that future generations never forget the horrors committed here. It is through remembrance that we strive towards creating a world where such acts are forever condemned and prevented from recurring again.
