The history of Chinese Jews;

According to textual research, at least in the Northern Song Dynasty (it is also said that it first began in the Tang Dynasty), there were traces of Kaifeng Jews in the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty (Kaifeng). Counting, they have lived here for more than 700 years. According to historical records, Jews at that time paid tribute to Xibu in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the two sides had a good relationship.

The emperor once said, "Summer belongs to me, abide by the ancestral customs and leave the capital of song dynasty", allowing them to live here for a long time, take the imperial examinations, and still retain their own culture and beliefs. However, after all, China is big enough, with a large population and many ethnic groups. In contrast, the number of Jews is too small, so they have no influence.
