China Philately issued a First Day Cover to honor the first Commemoration Day of Taiwan's Restoration on Saturday. The special envelope features a stamp depicting the Great Wall.
The day of Oct 25 was designated as the Commemoration Day of Taiwan's Restoration by the country's national legislature.
The date recalls Oct 25, 1945, when a ceremony was held in Taipei to accept Japan's surrender in Taiwan province within the China war theater of the Allied forces during World War II, symbolizing the return of Taiwan and the Penghu Islands to China's sovereign jurisdiction.
