Since childhood, Cinderella hindelera's fairy tale has gone deep into my heart.

Every time I heard this beautiful love fairy tale, I was longing for the bright crystal shoes that the prince sent to Hindley, which was only worn by Hindley.

I think every little girl has this illusion.

A few days ago, we caught up with an art exhibition in Toronto. On that day, many art galleries were free.

There is a museum of shoes in the centre of Toronto. It stayed up late that night.

When I went in, I saw the crystal shoe that had been accidentally dropped by Cinderella.

Little girl's fairy tale thoughts surged up again.

These super small shoes are Bobbi's shoes.

In museums, shoes are available in many countries and dynasties.

This is the flower pot shoes of Qing Dynasty in China.

Walking on this shoe must not be easy to balance.

China's three inch Golden Lotus.

At that time, every woman had to suffer from foot binding. I really could not imagine.

Such a small shoe can now be put into one of my hands.
