Huang Hua Gang Martyrs' Cemetery
黄花岗烈士陵园

 

 

 
The Guangzhou Memorial Garden is in memory of those who lost their lives during the Communist Uprising in 1927. In December 1927, a small group of communists attempted to overthrow the Kuomintang Nationalists in Guangzhou. They established the Canton Commune but were hopelessly outnumbered by the Nationalist force and the uprising was quickly crushed. Over 5,000 people involved in the uprising were swiftly killed or executed.

Many of those revolutionary martyrs are buried beneath the lawns of this peaceful park. There is also a museum in the gardens that has collections relating to Guangzhou revolutionary history. [More about the Huang Hua Gang Martyrs' Cemetery]
