The building that houses the Children's Palace
in Shanghai was built by a British businessman
in the 1930's as his personal residence. Since
then it has become meeting place for achieving
children. Nancy Reagan and Herbert Armstrong
visited here in 1984. From these visits the
Little Ambassadors of Shanghai came to the
United States and performed in San Francisco,
the White House and Ambassador College in
Pasadena.
