The Martyrs’ Cemetery was established in memory of the fallen soldiers of the 19th Route Army during the ‘January 28th’ Songhu Anti-Japanese Battle in 1932, and was funded by overseas Chinese in 1933. The entire cemetery is characterized by its grand scale, rigorous layout, and solemn and elegant design. The tomb path, running from north to south, forms a very distinct central axis. The main buildings are constructed with granite stone, reflecting the architectural style of ancient Rome. The cemetery is open daily from 5:30 AM to 9:30 PM, from January 1st to December 31st.
