Wei Family Folk Culture Park

Wei Family Folk Culture Park

The Wei Family Folk Culture Park serves as a patriotic education base.

The Wei Family Folk Culture Park is located in Luzishui Village, Puhu Township, western Beijing. Established in 2007 following a resolution by the Wei Clan Association to commemorate the martyrs of the clan who sacrificed their lives during the War of Resistance and to remember history, the park was approved by the district government.

The park includes a Martyrs' Square dedicated to the 96 martyrs who died during the War of Resistance. The Martyrs' Monument stands at the center of the cultural square, standing 5.3 meters tall — symbolizing the victory of the Korean War in 1953. It is made from three layers of three-colored granite, representing the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Liberation War, and the Korean War. The front of the monument bears the inscription “Wei Family Martyrs Monument” in seven characters, representing the month of the founding of the Communist Party of China. The back reads “Eternal Glory to the Martyrs Who Fell During the War of Resistance,” with punctuation included, totaling 49 characters, symbolizing the birth of the People’s Republic of China.

The park also features a Bell Pavilion, symbolizing an ever-present reminder to remember national humiliation.

The backyard houses the Wei Clan Ancestral Hall, displaying the clan’s heroic ancestors. On either side are the Merit Pavilion and the Root Ancestor Pavilion.

The walls document the migration and development of the Wei Clan, along with stories of its martyrs, serving as constant reminders to future generations to inherit civilization, remember history, and be inspired to carry forward the martyrs’ legacy through action to build a better future.
