    Photo taken on March 16, 2014 shows the buildings used by Japanese Imperial Army as a military brothel, also called "comfort station", during World War II, on Liji Alley in Nanjing, capital of east China's Jiangsu Province. Nanjing has planned to transform the buildings, which have been vacancy for nearly 10 years, into a conservation unit. There are seven buildings now at the location of the "comfort station", which is believed to be the largest in Asia. In 2003, an elderly Korean victim named Pak Yong-sim identified a room where she was captive for three years by the Japanese army. (Xinhua/Shen Peng)
