The Zhongshan Memorial Hall was built to commemorate the great revolutionary leader Sun Yat-sen. It has witnessed many historical events in Guangzhou and is of great commemorative significance.
Today, it is one of the most iconic buildings in Guangzhou and an important venue for large-scale gatherings and performances in Guangzhou.
This is a magnificent octagonal palace-style building with strong ethnic characteristics. In the center hangs a large gold-painted plaque with a blue background and red border, with four powerful characters written by Sun Yat-sen: "天下为公".
There is also an independent small room behind the memorial hall - the Sun Yat-sen Historical Relics Exhibition Hall, which introduces the life of Sun Yat-sen.
Every spring, the red cotton trees beside the main building of the memorial hall are in full bloom. The fiery red cotton trees and the blue tile roof of the memorial hall complement each other.

The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is not big, but the whole building is very unique. In that era, it was built by combining reinforced concrete structure, shear wall structure, and steel truss structure. There is no column in the 40-meter roof, which is a perfect combination of traditional Chinese architectural style and Western architectural structure. Most of the exhibitions inside are also about how to build this memorial hall, which is still very interesting. After walking around, I saw many people stamping, so I also joined in the fun. The paper was bought at the service center on the first floor, one yuan per piece, and there were 10 stamps on the first and second floors. You have to queue up to stamp this stamp. Some people in front of you stamped more than a dozen... I don’t know what it is used for. It took about half an hour to stamp. Because the stamps were tied with ropes, it was difficult to pull them out, and the stamps were a bit messy.
Walking out of Yuexiu Park, you can reach the west gate of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. Tickets are 10 yuan per person. The statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall on the mountain are on the same axis. The best photo spot is in front of the flower bed. This dome is a feature of the memorial hall. The beauty of Chinese architecture lies in the scenery within the scenery. It is beautiful to take pictures in the doorway, but it is difficult to take pictures if the gate is not open. The first floor of the memorial hall introduces the life of Sun Yat-sen, and the second floor introduces the architectural craftsmanship of the memorial hall. Another architectural highlight is the drainage system. After rainwater falls on the roof, it will be discharged into the pipes in the wall through the roof pipes and then flow into the ground.
The Zhongshan Memorial Hall was built in memory of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. Construction began in January 1929 and was completed in November 1931. When the memorial hall was renovated in 1963, the roof was entirely covered with blue glazed tiles, which was similar to the style of the Zhongshan Mausoleum in Nanjing.
The Guangzhou Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is an octagonal building with a solemn and magnificent appearance and strong national characteristics.
Built in 1931, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is one of the most iconic buildings in Guangzhou and an important venue for large-scale gatherings and performances in Guangzhou. It has witnessed many historical events in Guangzhou and has always stood firm in the wind and rain. Now, in addition to being a museum displaying the Sun Yat-sen Revolutionary Square, it is still an important international performance venue in Guangzhou.
The overall layout of the memorial hall designed by Lv Yanzhi combines the traditional Chinese palace style with modern Western graphic design techniques. It has a construction area of 3,700 square meters and is 49 meters high. There are four double-eaved hip-and-gable porches on the four sides, supporting the central octagonal peaked roof. White granite is used as the base and steps, light blue marble is used as the wall skirt, cream-yellow veneer bricks are used as the wall body, and purple-red water-polished columns are covered with royal blue glazed tiles. The layers are stacked and rolled, making it look particularly elegant and magnificent. Under the front eaves, a horizontal plaque hangs with four large characters written by Sun Yat-sen: "天下为公", which is majestic and powerful.
However, the current interior lighting design... is really a bit weird.
Guangzhou was the main site of Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary activities, so there is also the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. It was built in 1929 and was the largest Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in the world at that time.
The stamp collecting activity at the Memorial Hall is of great interest to both adults and children.
A building that integrates memorial hall, indoor performance venue, park and historical site
This is a place to commemorate the founding father, and patriotic friends should go and experience it.
The place is not big and it takes about two hours to visit.
The Guangzhou Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is the pinnacle of Sun Yat-sen memorial buildings in the world.
It is located in the center of Guangzhou, with convenient transportation. The building itself is very grand. It is a landscape that commemorates the founding father and is worth a visit.
A very unique place, worth visiting and learning.
Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is one of the places you must visit when you come to Guangzhou.
People over 65 and students under 18 are still free of charge. The park is open to the public free of charge. The entrance fee to the main building is 10 yuan.
You can collect stamps at the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, a total of 10 stamps. If you are interested, you can buy a special piece of paper at the service desk, 1 yuan per piece, only cash is accepted, and then collect the stamps in the memorial hall according to the picture position
You can get off at the Memorial Hall Station by subway. It was already late when we arrived, so we were unable to visit the museum. We just walked around outside. It was quite nice, with green trees and towering trees. It was a rare quiet place.
Echoing the Sun Yat-sen Memorial, this octagonal roof building reminds me of the People's Auditorium in Chongqing, really similar!
There are many exhibition posters and old photos inside the memorial hall for tourists to visit. A 10-yuan ticket is required to enter.
The ticket is 10 yuan, and the appearance is cool. It is worth a visit.
The exterior design is very unique and the interior layout is spectacular. Many large-scale performances in Guangzhou are now held here. It is also one of the landmark buildings in Guangzhou.
Standing at the gate of the memorial hall, you can see a pagoda-style building with red pillars, yellow bricks and royal blue glazed tiles - this is the famous Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. At first glance, the memorial hall is solemn and dignified, with both the magnificent beauty of Western architecture and the unique classical beauty of Chinese architecture.
Even if you are not a student of architecture, after listening to the design concept and construction process of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, you still can't help but sigh that the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is truly "a great building that serves as a permanent memorial."
Not many people come to the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. It used to be the Presidential Palace, but now it is the Memorial Hall. There are guides in the outer corridor, explaining the history of Sun Yat-sen and the Memorial Hall. Most people have learned about it in history books, so they just took a quick look. The main hall of the Memorial Hall is a conference hall, which is the preferred venue for Guangdong Province and various important meetings. The introduction of the main hall is said to have used a lot of advanced Western architectural science at the time, but I didn't understand it anyway (haha). In the middle of the stage is Sun Yat-sen's Prime Minister's will. I didn't expect to spend nearly an hour visiting the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall.
I went there during the National Day holiday in 2017. There weren't many people inside, so I finished the tour quickly. Actually, before I visited the memorial, I didn't know that there was a hall with a stage and a lot of seats inside. I thought it was a building similar to the Lincoln Memorial.
Just take some photos outside and don't go in.
This place is not interesting. Unless you have a lot of time, I don't recommend you to come here. When we came, there was a performance by a Korean singer in the museum. We could only visit the corridor and didn't go in.
The west gate of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall faces the north gate of Yuexiu Park, which is perfect for a visit. The park is open to the public for free, and there are many flowers, plants and trees planted inside. The oldest cotton tree and the two largest white orchid trees in Guangzhou are here. As soon as you enter the gate, you can see the bronze statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen standing in front of you. Behind it is the octagonal memorial hall with a royal blue glazed tile roof. In the center hangs a large gold-painted plaque with a blue background and red edges, on which Mr. Sun Yat-sen's handwritten "天下为公" is powerful and vigorous. The memorial hall was designed by Mr. Lu Yanzhi, a famous Chinese architect. He also designed the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum in Nanjing and the Sun Yat-sen Memorial on Yuexiu Mountain.
You can collect stamps at the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. The letter paper inside costs one yuan per piece. Go to the service counter on the right side of the entrance to buy it. There are a total of ten stamps, six on the first floor and four on the second floor. Don't miss them. If you are used to writing in a diary, you can bring your notebook and go directly to get stamps.
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is also the historical honor of Guangzhou and the pride of Guangzhou people. The majestic bronze statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen stands in the square of the Memorial Hall. The roots of the century-old trees around it are like dragon claws tightly grasping and penetrating into the soil. The Memorial Hall is free to visit. It is especially comfortable in the morning when there is sunshine. You can walk around and bask in the sun. When you are tired, you can take a rest under the big tree. There are performances in the Memorial Hall from time to time. You can often see the performance schedule after paying attention. The ticket price is also very close to the public. The seating pattern in the Memorial Hall is still very meaningful in design. No matter where you sit, the sound and viewing will not be affected too much. If you are in Guangzhou, it is worth a visit.
It is a historical museum commemorating Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the father of the nation. There are detailed old photo exhibitions inside, telling visitors about that epic history. At the same time, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is also a relatively high-end auditorium and stage in Guangzhou, where there are often wonderful performances. The facilities and equipment of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall are first-class, and the sound effects are excellent, which is worth the ticket price. There is also a strict security check at the door. All bags must be checked by the machine. The doorman and security guard are very polite, and the service is thoughtful.
The Memorial Hall at night feels different from that during the day.
The main building is a great hall, which mainly introduces the life of Sun Yat-sen, and has few cultural relics. The great hall is very beautiful, and the tiles are the same as those of the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum.
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is worth visiting because it has a main building. In front of the hall is a statue of Sun Yat-sen and a large green lawn. The overall layout is like a large lawn in front of a European castle. Sometimes I think that it was a spiritual enjoyment for people in the past to live in such a house. It's beautiful to think about it. But now it has become a public building.
After visiting Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum in Nanjing, you must visit Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Guangzhou.
Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, the ticket price here is ten yuan, and the student ticket is five yuan.
The entire memorial hall covers a large area, and the interior is like a museum. I really like visiting this kind of scenic spots, where I can gain a lot of knowledge.
There is also a grand auditorium in the entire memorial hall, which is very spectacular.
The location is also very good, next to the subway station, Memorial Hall Station.
I think it's worth a visit.
One of Guangzhou's famous attractions, close to Yuexiu Park
The building is very exquisite. It costs 10 yuan to visit. There is a super large hall inside and the air conditioning is also very powerful.
The south gate of the Zhongshan Memorial Hall faces the north gate of Yuexiu Park (if I remember correctly), which is perfect for a visit. Just visit here. Collect all the stamps in the Zhongshan Memorial Hall and you will come out. The letter paper inside costs one yuan per piece. Go to the service desk on the right side of the entrance to buy it. There are a total of ten stamps, six on the first floor and four on the second floor. Don't miss them~ Girls who are used to writing diaries can bring their notebooks and go directly to get stamps.
The second floor basically introduces the architecture of the memorial hall, which is very popular among people who study architecture. You can also collect stamps. The stamp paper is at the service desk, one yuan per piece.
Tickets are free for those under 18. I learned about Mr. Sun Yat-sen's deeds and the designer's views and ideas. I also heard the introduction of the staff. This designer also designed a famous scenic spot in Nanjing with a similar style. It is a good place to learn about history and is worth a visit.
PS: One more thing to add about the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall: it’s best to ask a tour guide to introduce it. You can find someone to match the price. Since we didn’t have a tour guide to introduce us, we were a little confused. We only got a rough idea from the introductions of the tour guide and the tour guide. So be sure to find a tour guide!
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is the first memorial hall in my country that combines Chinese classical culture with Western architectural style. It cost a lot of money and has been renovated many times, but it still maintains its grand style. The auditorium can accommodate a large number of spectators and has previously hosted many large-scale meetings and activities to commemorate the founding father.
Walking down the small Yuexiu Mountain, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is to the south. I had seen it online before, and it was empty inside, so I just passed by and took some pictures.
The main building of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is the memorial hall itself, which is a modern building. There is a statue of Sun Yat-sen in front of the hall. You need to buy a ticket and go through security check to enter the memorial hall. You can buy tickets via WeChat, 7 yuan per ticket. Inside is a large hall, and the outer circle of corridors mainly displays the history of the memorial hall and Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary history.
After exiting the subway, you can immediately find the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. The statue is very majestic. Although you need a ticket, there is a stamp station at the entrance of the hall.
There are four monuments in total, located in four corners, and the environment is very good.
The entrance fee to the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is 10 yuan, and children are free.
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is a base for patriotism education. It is a good idea to take children to visit it. It’s just that the children are too young and don’t know much about history. They just take a quick look. The architectural design of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is very distinctive and magnificent.
The entrance fee is 10 yuan, and the student ticket is 5 yuan. It is nice to visit here. The lobby is very grand. After the visit, you can walk to Yuexiu Park, which is about 5 minutes away.
The main building of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is an octagonal palace-style building. In the center hangs a large gold-painted plaque with a blue background and red borders, which is handwritten by Sun Yat-sen: "天下为公". Many concerts are held here now, and there are many pictures and texts on the wall, introducing the construction of the memorial hall and Sun Yat-sen's profile.
There are many wonderful performances. Just follow the WeChat public account to book tickets.
It is an octagonal building with a solemn and magnificent appearance and strong national characteristics.
Guangzhou is not too hot this season, and it is very enjoyable to stroll on the road. This time I only went to the Little Slender Waist and the Memorial Hall. I hope to climb Baiyun Mountain next time if I have the chance.
The memorial hall of Dr. Sun Yat-sen is surrounded by many antique buildings. It is similar to a museum. It has a large space and not many tourists. It is worth a visit.
The park is open to the public free of charge. There are many flowers, plants and trees planted inside. The oldest cotton tree and the two largest white orchid trees in Guangzhou are here. When you enter the gate, you can see the bronze statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen standing in front of you. Behind it is the octagonal memorial hall with a royal blue glazed tile roof. In the center hangs a large gold-painted plaque with a blue background and red edges. On it, Mr. Sun Yat-sen wrote the powerful words "天下为公". The memorial hall was designed by Mr. Lu Yanzhi, a famous Chinese architect. He also designed the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum in Nanjing and the Sun Yat-sen Memorial on Yuexiu Mountain.
Guangzhou Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is the landmark of Guangzhou.
The century-old kapok trees and the large lawn at the entrance are beautiful, and the bronze statue of the founding father and the plaque "天下为公" are also very solemn. However, I strongly do not recommend entering to visit, as it is just an auditorium. My father paid 80 yuan for a tour guide, but the guide finished the story of the building very quickly. I wanted to know more about the life of the founding father, but I felt that the guide only had a limited understanding.
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is very small and can be visited in half an hour. You can learn about the life and deeds of the great man Sun!
I came to the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall with awe for the founding father Sun Yat-sen. Before entering the memorial hall, I saw a bronze statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen, about 5 meters high, standing in front of the memorial hall. It only costs 10 yuan to enter the memorial hall. I went there during the Dragon Boat Festival last year, and there were not many people. There is a lobby in the middle of the memorial hall. There will be performances or ceremonies on special holidays. The big screens on both sides of the lobby will play the life story of Mr. Sun Yat-sen in a loop. The outside of the lobby shows the life story of Mr. Sun Yat-sen in the form of pictures and text. There are two floors in the memorial hall for us to visit. It takes about 40 minutes to complete the tour. The sentence that impressed me the most was what Mr. Sun Yat-sen said to Soong Ching Ling when he was about to die: "I don't love anything, I only love you." Time flies. It has been a century since the era of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall has a history of nearly 90 years since its construction began in 1929. It has been renovated many times in these 90 years. The purpose is to allow everyone to have a more intuitive and comprehensive understanding of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. It is still worth a visit.
Passed by it numerous times by car, first time going in.
This year I want to visit all the check-in attractions in Guangzhou~
A place I visit often, the Memorial Hall is located on the central axis of Guangzhou City. My favorite thing is the four big characters "天下为公" written by Sun Yat-sen here, and the Kapok King here.
Generally, check-in points are more suitable for party and government education.
I didn't expect that there is such a solemn place in the city of Guangzhou. It's grand to say that the world belongs to the public, and it's even more grand to do it. I really admire such a founding father. I hope that the motherland will be unified soon.
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is located in the south of Yuexiu Park. It was built by Guangzhou people and overseas Chinese to commemorate Mr. Sun Yat-sen. The memorial hall is not big, mainly a main building, and the ticket price is 10 yuan. Inside the building is a performance hall, where there will be some performances. There are some historical records, photos and event introductions about Sun Yat-sen in the inner corridor around the performance hall.
The memorial hall is right next to me when I got off the bus. I took a photo while passing by. It looks very grand, with a large green lawn. The surrounding area is under repair, and I don’t know what they are repairing.
I heard there was nothing interesting inside, so I didn't buy a ticket to enter the lobby.
For those with children, the memorial hall can be viewed from the outside. There is no need to go inside. The stage inside is still under construction, and it feels like decoration. The walls of the room are full of architectural introductions, which we are not very interested in. My daughter likes the fact that she can stamp commemorative stamps inside. There is no need to go there specially.
You can go and have a look, there is a lot of introductory information.
Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is a place that every Guangzhou citizen knows. But as an ordinary Guangzhou citizen, I have no feelings about the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. I neither love it nor hate it. Why? Covering a large area and located in a prime location in the city center, how many people walk in the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall to commemorate Mr. Sun Yat-sen? How many performances of historical significance have been staged in the performance venue? However, Guangzhou needs it and needs the existence of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, because it is one of the business cards representing Guangzhou. Although Guangzhou already has many new landmarks, the historical value of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is the greatest significance of its existence.
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is a magnificent octagonal palace-style building. It was originally Sun Yat-sen’s Presidential Palace in Guangzhou. It was converted into a memorial hall in 1931. Apart from its historical significance, the building itself is a blend of Western and Chinese elements and is very representative.
The memorial hall is huge and can accommodate 5,000 people. It is luxuriously decorated and is usually used as a performance venue. Wong Cho-lam's stand-up comedy was once performed there. The memorial hall also has a Sun Yat-sen History Exhibition Hall, which specifically introduces the life and deeds of the founding father.
address
No. 256, Dongfeng Middle Road, Yuexiu District, Guangzhou
How to get there
Take Metro Line 2 in downtown Guangzhou to Zhongshan Memorial Hall Station, exit C, and the Zhongshan Memorial Hall is across the road.
Tickets
The main building of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and the historical exhibition hall have a ticket price of 10 yuan, while other areas are free.
Travel Tips
The Memorial Hall offers free scheduled tours at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. every day. It can be visited in 2 hours. It can be combined with the nearby Yuexiu Park when arranging an itinerary. Nearby are Panfu Road and Jiefang Road, where many restaurants are located. You can choose to dine at the nearby old Cantonese restaurants.
In terms of scenery, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall may not be as good as other scenery in Guangzhou. At best, it is just a park in the eyes of some people. Moreover, it is not a simple cultural relic, but a historical exhibition and a meeting. The main body of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall adopts a steel frame structure, with a clever structural design and a grand appearance. There are not many outstanding features, but it is still worth seeing. As for the ticket, it costs 10 yuan for non-locals, and I don’t know if it is free for locals.
Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. I took a photo outside and left. There was nothing much to see.
It is not only to commemorate the revolutionary pioneer Sun Yat-sen, but also an architectural feast during the Republic of China period. Recommended for visiting.
The memorial hall is very large and you can learn about some history of the Republic of China period.
A check-in attraction, but it is worth a visit purely for the sentimental points of Premier Sun.
The courtyard is nice, a relaxing green space in the city center, but there is really no need to spend ten yuan to go in and see it. It's a scam, a scam, a big scam. The octagonal building with a pointed roof looks very beautiful from the outside, and it is also very grand and beautiful to take pictures, but there is only one auditorium open inside. The only thing you can do is to rest in the auditorium, or walk around the auditorium to see the photo exhibition. It's very boring... There is absolutely no need to spend money to come in, just take pictures outside! ! ! !
Too many renderings of buildings, the designer is really good. But it deviates from the purpose of commemorating Sun Yat-sen and introduces the buildings in great detail, which is not very good. It happened to rain, so I missed Yuexiu Mountain behind.
It is the memorial hall in everyone's mind, but this is the largest of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Halls. The building feels better and you can take pictures.
Guangzhou Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is an octagonal building with a solemn and magnificent appearance and strong national characteristics. The designer cleverly used the structural principles of architectural mechanics and adopted a mixed structure of steel frame and reinforced concrete. There is no column in the building space with a span of 71 meters.
I don't know how others got in. Anyway, I used my student ID card to go in and see all the places without spending a penny. It can be seen as a museum or an ordinary urban green space. The architectural shape is still quite beautiful. Even now, it is not outdated. In addition, I prefer buildings with large roofs. So I regard it as a key project.
The main building of Guangzhou Zhongshan Memorial Hall is an octagonal building, with white granite as the base and steps, light blue marble as the wall skirt, creamy yellow veneer brick as the wall body, purple-red water-milled large columns, and the roof is all made of blue glazed tiles, which are stacked and rolled. There is also an elliptical golden dome on the top. The appearance is solemn and magnificent, with strong national characteristics. There is no column in the building space with a span of 70 meters. It is one of the most iconic buildings in Guangzhou and an important place for large-scale gatherings and performances in Guangzhou. I have watched a song and dance performance there. There are also many trees and flowers planted in the park. It is also a beautiful park. The ticket is 10 yuan. You can park for free for two hours!
Both the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and the Nanjing Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum were designed by Chinese architect Mr. Lu Yanzhi. The exterior of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is an octagonal building. The most amazing thing is that there is not a single pillar to support such a magnificent building, which is breathtaking.
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is near the Memorial Hall Station on Metro Line 2. The park is open to the public for free, but you need to buy a ticket to enter the main building and exhibition hall, which costs about 10 yuan. However, I was a little tired that day, so I only walked around the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and left without entering the main building and exhibition hall. Next time I come to Guangzhou, I will take time to go in and visit.
Mr. Sun Yat-sen, one of the great men I admire most, is worth a visit
The Zhongshan Memorial Hall is mainly used to commemorate the founding father of the Republic of China, Dr. Sun Yat-sen.
The scenery is nice, suitable for strolling and walking. If you have nothing to do, you can go there.
The venue was cleared at 5:20 on the day we went there, so we could only take a quick look in just 30 minutes. Entering from the left, we passed a large auditorium, which was decorated with gorgeous colors, magnificent and magnificent, and had 11 entrances and exits, which was convenient for entry and exit, and the stage was wide. It happened to be the rehearsal of the year-end commendation conference of CITIC Bank, so we didn't stay for too long. Then we walked up the stairs and came to the second floor. The second floor introduced the architectural features and architectural connotations of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in detail in the form of exhibition boards. There were two commemorative medals at each of the three turns for tourists to engrave. The six commemorative medals were different, and the engraved patterns were simple but exquisite and delicate, which was very worth remembering. After the visit to the second floor, we returned to the first floor from the left. There were still exhibition boards introducing the development and role of the memorial hall. At the exit was an electronic exhibition board, where you could first take a photo (camera) and then write a message. Very good design.
There is a display board in the memorial hall introducing Mr. Sun's democratic revolution experience. As a liberal arts student, although I have learned a lot about it, I still have a sense of respect when I see these events again. At the same time, I deeply feel that every citizen has a share of responsibility for the success or failure of the country.
