Taiping was a Chinese passenger steamer from World War II and the post-war period. This unit, although small in Europe, is very well recognized in the Far East, especially in the PRC and Taiwan. The unit played a significant role in the final period of the civil war in China in 1945-1949, transporting thousands of people between mainland China and the island of Formosa (today's Taiwan) who were fleeing the communist forces. For this reason, it is not rarely comparable to the English sailing ship from the 17th century called the Mayflower, which brought the first English settlers to Pennsylvania. Unfortunately, Taiping is also often compared to another English ship - RMS Titanic, because, like its more famous predecessor, also Taiping sank on January 27, 1949, dragging over 1,500 people to the bottom. In 2014, this disastrous last cruise on the Taiping steamer became the basis for the filming of John Woo's The Crossing.
